The molecular weight of potassium ferricyanide is 329.24 grams/mol. how would you make 1 liter of a 500mm potassium ferricyanide solution?

w = 164.62 g

Explanation:

molarity of a solution is given as -

Molarity (M)  =  ( w / m ) / V ( in L)

where ,

m = molecular mass ,

w = given mass ,

V = volume of solution ,

From the question ,

M = 500 mM = 0.5 M

( since , 1 mM =  1 / 100 M)

As we know , the molecular mass of potassium ferricyanide = 329.24 g/ mol

V = vol.of solution = 1 L

w = ?

To find the value of w , using the above formula , and putting the respected values ,

Molarity (M)  =  ( w / m ) / V ( in L)

0.5  =  ( w / 329.24 ) / 1 L

w = 164.62 g
