Answer: 126.1 grams of are needed to make 5.3 L of 0.25 M solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

To calculate the mass of solute for given molarity, we use the equation:


\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{given mass of solute}}{\text {Molar mass of solute}* \text{Volume of solution in L}}


0.25M=(x)/(95.2g/mol* 5.3L)


x=126.1g

Thus 126.1 grams of are needed to make 5.3 L of 0.25 M solution
