of a 0.15 M solution.

Respuesta :

znk

Answer:

[tex]\large \boxed{\text{0.30 g }}[/tex]

Explanation:

1. Calculate the moles of NaOH

[tex]\text{Moles of NaOH} = \text{0.050 L solution} \times \dfrac{\text{0.15 mol NaOH}}{\text{1 L solution}} = \text{0.0075 mol NaOH}[/tex]

2. Calculate the mass of NaOH

[tex]\text{Mass of NaOH } = \text{0.0075 mol NaOH } \times \dfrac{\text{40.00 g NaOH }}{\text{1 mol NaOH }} = \textbf{0.30 g NaOH}\\\\\text{You need $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.30 g of NaOH}}$ to prepare the solution}[/tex]
