molarity = no. of moles of solute / volume of solution in liters
2.5 = no. of moles of solute / 0.25
no. of moles of solute = 2.5 x 0.25 = 0.625 moles

Answer: 0.625 moles of solute are contained in a 250.0 ml solution with a concentration of 2.5 M

Step-by-step explanation:

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present per liter of the solution.

Formula used :


Molarity=(n* 1000)/(V_s)

where,

n= moles of solute = ?


V_s = volume of solution in ml = 250 ml

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get


2.5M=(n* 1000)/(250ml)


n=0.625moles

Therefore, the moles of solute will be 0.625.
