Answer:

Mass = 889.8 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Mg(NO₃)₂ required = ?

Volume of solution = 1.5 L

Molarity of solution = 4 M

Solution:

we will calculate the number of moles from molarity formula then we will calculate the mass from number of moles.

Formula:

Molarity = number of moles / Volume in L

4 M = number of moles / 1.5 L

Number of moles = 4 M× 1.5 L

Number of moles = 6 mol/L × L

Number of moles = 6 mol

Mass of Mg(NO₃)₂:

Mass= number of moles ×molar mass

Mass = 6 mol × 148.3 g/mol

Mass = 889.8 g
