Can someone please explain to me how to do this?! I am completely lost. Calculate the volume indicated for each of the following: liters of a 2.00M KCl solution to obtain 0.600mol of KCl.
mol = M x L = ?
0.600 = 2.00 x L. Solve for L.
Sure! To calculate the volume of a solution needed to obtain a specific number of moles, you can use the following formula:
Volume (in liters) = moles of solute / molarity of the solution
In this case, you are trying to determine the volume of a 2.00M KCl solution needed to obtain 0.600 mol of KCl.
To calculate the volume, we'll plug the values into the formula:
Volume = 0.600 mol / 2.00 M
Now, divide 0.600 mol by 2.00 M:
Volume = 0.300 L
Therefore, the volume of the 2.00M KCl solution needed to obtain 0.600 mol of KCl is 0.300 liters.
