Answer:

0.0102 L or 10.2 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Molarity = 0.250 M

Mole = 0.00255 mole

Volume =?

Molarity is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of the solution. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Molarity = mole / Volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the volume as follow:

Molarity = 0.250 M

Mole = 0.00255 mole

Volume =?

Molarity = mole / Volume

0.250 = 0.00255 / volume

Cross multiply

0.250 × volume = 0.00255

Divide both side by 0.250

Volume = 0.00255 / 0.250

Volume = 0.0102 L

Covert 0.0102 L to mL.

1 L = 1000 mL

Therefore,

0.0102 L = 0.0102 L × 1000 / 1 L

0.0102 L = 10.2 mL

Thus, the volume is 0.0102 L or 10.2 mL
