Answer:
0.512 M
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 12 g of C₂H₆O₄. This can be obtained as shown below:
Mass of C₂H₆O₄ = 12 g
Molar mass of C₂H₆O₄ = (2×12) + (6×1) + (4×16)
= 24 + 6 + 64
= 94 g/mol
Mole of C₂H₆O₄ =?
Mole = mass /molar mass
Mole of C₂H₆O₄ = 12 / 94
Mole of C₂H₆O₄ = 0.128 mole
Next, we shall convert 250 mL to L. This can be obtained as follow:
1000 mL = 1 L
Therefore,
250 mL = 250 mL × 1 L / 1000 mL
250 mL = 0.25 L
Thus, 250 mL is equivalent to 0.25 L.
Finally, we shall determine the molarity of the solution. This can be obtained as follow:
Mole of C₂H₆O₄ = 0.128 mole
Volume = 0.25 L
Molarity =?
Molarity = mole /Volume
Molarity = 0.128 / 0.25
Molarity = 0.512 M
Thus, the molarity of the solution is 0.512 M
