The answer for the following problem is mentioned below.

  • Therefore the volume of the HCl solution is 1.24 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

molarity of the solution (m) = 5.10 M

mass of solution (m) = 231 grams

Gram molecular mass of hydrogen chloride = 36.5 u

To find:

volume of the solution

We know;

m =
(n)/(V)

Where;

m represents the molarity of the solution

n represents the no of moles of the solution

V represents the volume of the solution

n =
(m)/(M)

where;

n represents the no of moles of the gas

m represents the mass of the solution

M represents the Gram molecular mass of the solution

Therefore;

n =
(231)/(36.5)

n = 6.3 moles

So;

5.10 =
(6.3)/(V)

V = 1.24 L

Therefore the volume of the solution is 1.24 L
