How many moles of HCI are needed to prepare 8.0 liters of a 4.0 M solution of HCI?

0.5 mol HCL

32 mol HCI

12 mol HCL

2 mol HCI

Respuesta :

Answer: 32 mol HCI

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

[tex]Molarity=\frac{n}{V_s}[/tex]

where,

n = moles of solute

[tex]V_s[/tex] = volume of solution in Liters

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

[tex]4.0M=\frac{moles}{8.0L}[/tex]

[tex]moles={4.0M\times 8.0L}=32mol[/tex]

Therefore, the moles of HCI needed to prepare 8.0 liters of a 4.0 M solution of HCI are 32.
