Answer

(a) $$ 0.0108 \space M Al_2(SO_{4})_3$$ (b) $$ 0.0418 \space M CaCl_2 .6H_{2}O$$ (c) $$0.336 \space M HBr$$

Work Step by Step

(a) $ Al_2(SO_{4})_3 $ : ( 26.98 $\times$ 2 )+ ( 16.00 $\times$ 4 $\times$ 3 )+ ( 32.07 $\times$ 3 )= 342.17 g/mol - Calculate the amount of moles: $$ 1.57 \space g \times \frac{1 \space mol}{ 342.17 \space g} = 4.59 \times 10^{-3} \space mol$$ * 425 mL = 0.425 L - Calculate the molarity: $$ \frac{ 4.59 \times 10^{-3} \space mol}{ 0.425 \space L} = 0.0108 \space M $$ (b) $ CaCl_2 .6H_{2}O $ : ( 35.45 $\times$ 2 )+ ( 40.08 $\times$ 1 )+ ( 1.008 $\times$ 2 $\times$ 6 )+ ( 16.00 $\times$ 6 )= 219.08 g/mol - Calculate the amount of moles: $$ 45.8 \space g \times \frac{1 \space mol}{ 219.08 \space g} = 0.209 \space mol$$ - Calculate the molarity: $$ \frac{ 0.209 \space mol}{ 5.00 \space L} = 0.0418 \space M $$ (c)$ HBr $ : ( 79.90 $\times$ 1 )+ ( 1.008 $\times$ 1 )= 80.91 g/mol - Calculate the amount of moles: $$ 18.4 \space g \times \frac{1 \space mol}{ 80.91 \space g} = 0.227 \space mol$$ * 675 mL = 0.675 L - Calculate the molarity: $$ \frac{ 0.227 \space mol}{ 0.675 \space L} = 0.336 \space M $$
