QUESTION: Problem 73P

Concentrated sulfuric acid (18.3 M) has a density of 1.84 g/mL.

(a) How many moles of H2SO4 are in each milliliter of solution?

(b) What is the mass % of H2SO4,in the solution?

ANSWER:

Solution 73P

Step 1 of 2

a.

Here, we have to calculate the number of moles of H2SO4 are in each millilitre of solution.

Given

Molarity of the solution = 18.3 mol/L.

Given volume of solution = 1 L.

Write the equality and conversion factor.

1L = 1000ml.

So, the conversion factor is 

Molarity =

Rearrange the formula is as follows.

Moles of solute = Molarity of solution  volume of solution.

                       

                         = 18.3 mol/L   

                         = 1.83  x 10-2 mol /ml.

Therefore, number of moles of H2SO4 solute is 1.83 x 10-2 mol/ml.
