Answer:

6.75 moles of H₂SO₄

Step-by-step explanation:

Our solution is made of H₂SO₄, sulfuric acid.

The acid is our solute.

M determines concentration which is called in this case, Molarity.

Molarity = moles of solute in 1 L of solution

M = mol / L

We replace data → 2.50 mol/L = mol / 2.70L

2.50 mol/L . 2.70L = mol

mol = 6.75 moles of H₂SO₄
