How many grams of NaOH are contained in 500 mL of a 0.80 M sodium hydroxide solution?


Sagot :

This is molarity: moles of solute/liters of solution. (Not molality)

1. Plug in what we know:

500 mL = 0.5 L

0.80 = moles/0.5

0.80*0.5 = moles

moles = 0.4

2. NaOH is given as 40 g/mole, so calculate the grams:

0.4 * 40 = 16 grams

answer: 16 grams
