Answer: 21.3 g of
Na_2SO_4 are required to make 0.30 L of 0.500 M
Na_2SO_4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.


Molarity=(n)/(V_s)

where,

n = moles of solute


V_s = volume of solution in L

moles of
Na_2SO_4 =
\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=(xg)/(142g/mol)

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get


0.500M=(xg)/(142g/mol* 0.30L)


x=21.3g

Therefore, 21.3 g of
Na_2SO_4 are required to make 0.30 L of 0.500 M
Na_2SO_4.
