Final answer:

The question asks for the volume of a 0.209 M solution needed to react with 2.43 g of Cu(NO₃)₃, but due to insufficient data regarding the balanced chemical equation, the calculation cannot be completed.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how many liters of a 0.209 M solution is needed to completely react with 2.43 g of Cu(NO₃)₃, we first need the balanced chemical equation for the reaction. However, the reaction is not provided in the question, and an assumption cannot be made regarding the other reactant or the product. Without this information, we cannot proceed with calculating the number of moles of reactant needed or the volume of solution required.

Normally, one would start by calculating the number of moles of Cu(NO₃)₃ using its molar mass and then apply the stoichiometry of the balanced chemical reaction to find the moles of the other reactant required. Next, the number of moles would be converted to volume by using the concentration of the solution.

For instance, the calculation would resemble:

  • Determine molar mass of Cu(NO₃)₃
  • Calculate moles of Cu(NO₃)₃ from given mass
  • Use the balanced equation to find the ratio of Cu(NO₃)₃ to the reactant in the 0.209 M solution
  • Calculate the volume needed using the concentration of the solution and the moles of the reactant required
