What volume of 0.200 m ethanol solution contains each of the following amounts?
a. 0.45 mol ethanol
b. 1.22 mol ethanol
c. 1.2 x 10-2 mol ethanol

A. 2.3 L

B. 6.10 L

C. 0.060 L

Explanation:

The question asks the volume of a 0.200 M solution of ethanol that contains certain number of moles of ethanol.

The M in the 0.200 M stands for Molarity. This is a unit of concentration that can be expressed as:

Molarity = moles of solute / Liters of solution

In this case:

0.200 M = moles of ethanol / Liters of solution

So from the formula we can get that we can calculate the volume of the solution, as Liters of solution, given the moles in each case as:

Liters of solution = moles of ethanol / 0.200 moles/L

A. 0.45 mol ethanol

Liters of solution = 0.45 moles / 0.200 moles/L = 2.25 L = 2.3 L

B. 1.22 mol ethanol

Liters of solution = 1.22 moles / 0.200 moles/L = 6.10 L

C. 1.2 x 10⁻² mol ethanol

Liters of solution = 1.2 x 10⁻² moles / 0.200 moles/L = 0.060 L

Note: Each answer is given with the correct number of significant figures which results from the least number of significant figures in the given used values in each calculation.

why is arctic sea ice important? arctic sea ice keeps the polar regions cool and moderate global climate. sea ice has a bright surface; 80 percent of the sunlight that strikes it is reflected back into space. as sea ice melts in the summer, it exposes the dark ocean surface.
