Answer: 0.4375 mols of solute
Explanation:
The problem is asking for the amount of solute. We are given the value of molarity. The molarity is 0.25M. We know that molarity is [tex]M=\frac{mols of solute}{liters of solution}[/tex]. Since we are given the liters of solution is 1.75, we can use those values to solve for mols of solute.
[tex]0.25M=\frac{x}{1.75L}[/tex] [multiply both sides by 1.75 L]
[tex]x=0.4375 mols[/tex]
There are 0.4375 mols of solute.
