Final answer:
The molarity of the solution containing 11.2 g of Ca(NO3)2 in 175 ml of solution is 0.390 M.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the molarity of a solution, we use the formula:
Molarity (M) = moles of solute / volume of solution (L)
Given that we have 11.2 g of Ca(NO3)2 and a volume of 175 mL, we first need to convert the grams to moles. The molar mass of Ca(NO3)2 is 164.1 g/mol, so:
Moles of Ca(NO3)2 = 11.2 g / 164.1 g/mol = 0.068 mol
Next, we convert the volume of the solution from milliliters to liters:
Volume of solution = 175 mL / 1000 mL/L = 0.175 L
Finally, we can calculate the molarity:
Molarity = 0.068 mol / 0.175 L = 0.390 M
The molarity of the solution containing 11.2 g of Ca(NO3)2 in 175 ml of solution is 0.390 M.
