Question

A solution containing 121.8g of Zn(NO3)2 per litre has density of 1.107g/mL.calculate it's molal concentration​

Answer 1

Answer:

Molal concentration of solution is 0.875 mol/kg

Cm =moles of solute/kg of solvent

V(solute)=121.8 g/1.107g/mL-1=116.35mL

V(solvent)= 1000mL-116.35mL=883.65 mL=0.88L=0.88 kg

n=m/M=121.8g/157.4g/mol=0.77 mol

Cm=0.77 mol/0.88 kg=0.875 mol/kg
