Answer:

The volume in liters is 7.06L

Step-by-step explanation:

A 0.133mol/L copper (II) sulfate solution, is the concentration in Molarity.

Let's convert the mass of solute into moles (mass / molar mass)

150 g CuSO₄ / 159.61 g/m = 0.939 moles

Now we can apply this formula:

Molarity . Volume = Moles

0.133 mol/L . Volume = 0.939 moles

Volume = 0.939 moles / 0.133 mol/L = 7.06 L
