Answer»

Concentration of a solution can be expressed in terms of Molarity. Molarity can be calculated in the following way:

Molarity = moles of solute/ liters of solution

Find moles of 2.65 g of Na₂CO₃ (molar mass = 106)

Moles = mass/molar mass

= 2.65 g / 106 = 0.025 moles

Molarity of this solution:

Molarity = 0.025 moles / 0.25 liters (250ml in liters) = 0.1 M

We can use the molarity calculated to find the moles ofNa₂CO₃ in 10ml solution:

If molarity = moles of solute/ volume in litersThen ; Moles = volume in liters x Molarity

Moles ofNa₂CO₃ in 10ml solution = 10/1000× 0.1M = 0.001 moles

We can find the new molarity of the solution that has been diluted to 1 liter:

The volume = 1 litermoles = 0.001

Molarity = moles of solute/ volume in liters = 0.001moles/1 liter. = 0.001M

The concentration therefore = 0.001M
