Answer: 238 g of sodium nitrate are needed to make 2.50L of 1.12m solution
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)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/chemistry/college/67s1y4eezuqj87vpx5jppmnv9852lastix.png)
where,
n = moles of solute
= volume of solution in L
Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get
![1.12=\frac{\text {moles of}NaNO_3}{2.50}](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/chemistry/college/sg1xf95sl76p5ilaus5q66zd6z9l39wcnv.png)
moles of

moles of
![NaNO_3=\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/chemistry/college/r5xtbwcyee17y4tkr5szsqe6rqyqhct57o.png)
![2.8mol=(xg)/(85g/mol)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/chemistry/college/bnibd2p7vukhwa48z4ivzjta0fhdklqlfv.png)
