What volume of a 0.550 M solution of potassium hydroxide (KOH) can be made with 19.9 g of potassium hydroxide?

Answer:

0.645 L

Explanation:

To find the volume, you need to (1) convert grams to moles (using the molar mass) and then (2) calculate the volume (using the molarity ratio). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given values.

(Step 1)

Molar Mass (KOH): 39.098 g/mol + 15.998 g/mol + 1.008 g/mol

Molar Mass (KOH): 56.104 g/mol

19.9 grams KOH              1 mole
--------------------------  x  -----------------------  =  0.355 moles KOH
                                     56.014 grams

(Step 2)

Molarity = moles / volume                            <----- Molarity ratio

0.550 M = 0.355 moles / volume                 <----- Insert values

(0.550 M) x volume = 0.355 moles              <----- Multiply both sides by volume

volume = 0.645 L                                          <----- Divide both sides by 0.550
