A solution is made by dissolving 62.42 g of ammonium sulfate in enough water to make 50.0 mL of solution. What is the molarity of this solution?

9.46 M

Explanation:

Molarity is a measure of the molar concentration of a solution. It can be calculated by the following formula

Molarity = number of moles/volume

Using moles = mass/molar mass

Molar Mass of Ammonium sulfate (NH₄)₂SO₄ =

{14 + 1(4)}2 + 32 + 16(4)

= {14 + 4}2 + 32 + 64

= 18(2) + 96

= 36 + 96

= 132g/mol

mole = mass/molar mass

mole = 62.42 ÷ 132

mole = 0.473mol

- Molarity = mole ÷ volume

Volume = 50.0 mL = 50/1000 = 0.05 L

Molarity = 0.473 ÷ 0.05

Molarity = 9.46 M

i had this on my unit activity, i can you if you are a plato student. are you a plato student?

the number of valence electrons for each molecule or ion is shown beneath the structure. remember hydrogen will not have more than two electrons. this hydrogen is part of a covalent bond (sharing two electrons). a double bond here would cause hydrogen to share four electrons with phosphorus.
