What is the molarity of a solution that contains 85.0 grams sodium sulfate in 325 mL of solution?

XTHb:

well explain this what exactly are u finding and how

KIllerwolf:

The mass of one mole of Na2SO4 is 142 grams. 0.195 M. 0.599 M. 1.84 M.

XTHb:

so work it out from there if u still need help i can help further

XTHb:

i would help and tell u but thats breaking qcs rules

AZ:

Molarity is equal to moles of solute over liters of solution We have 85.0 grams of sodium sulfate. We need to first convert that to moles. Can you find the molar mass of sodium sulfate using the periodic table? (Alternatively, you can always look it up) https://www.google.com/search?q=molar+mass+of+sodium+sulfate The molar mass tells you how many grams of that compound is equal to 1 mole. So divide 85 by the molar mas to find out how many moles of sodium sulfate you have. Finally, you have 325 mL of solution. Convert that into Liters. Recall that molarity is moles of solute over LITERS of solution. 1 L = 1000 mL so to convert 325 mL into L, you need to just divide by 1000. So to get your final answer of the molarity of the solution, Molarity = moles / liters Divide the two values you have gotten so far
