Determine how many moles of HCL are contained in 44.9 mL of 8.00 M solution of HCl. Express your answer in decimal form rounded to three decimal places. Do not include units with your answer.

molesHCl=volumeLiters*Molarity

= .0449*8 moles

To determine the number of moles of HCl in the given solution, we can use the formula:

moles = (concentration) × (volume)

First, let's convert the volume from milliliters (mL) to liters (L):

44.9 mL = 44.9 ÷ 1000 L = 0.0449 L

Now we can substitute the values into the formula:

moles = (8.00 M) × (0.0449 L)

Calculating this expression:

moles = 0.3592

Rounding to three decimal places, the number of moles of HCl is 0.359.
