A solution of sodium trioxocarbonate (IV) contains 10.6 g in 250cm³ of solution. Calculate the concentration of the solution. [Na2CO3=106]

  • A. A. 0.4mol dm⁻³Correct
  • B. B. 1.0 mol dm⁻³
  • C. C. 10.6 mol dm⁻³
  • D. D. 25.0 mol dm⁻³

Explanation

Mole = Mass/Molar mass = 10.6g/106gmol⁻¹ = 0.1 mol. Concentration = Mole/Volume(dm³) = 0.1mol/0.25dm³ = 0.4 moldm⁻³.
