A chemist adds 0.60L of a 0.20/molL sodium thiosulfate Na2S2O3 solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the millimoles of sodium thiosulfate the chemist has added to the flask. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. (in mmol)

1.2×10² mmole of Na₂S₂O₃

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume = 0.6 L

Molarity = 0.2 mol/L

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ =?

Molarity is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of water. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Molarity = mole /Volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the number of mole of Na₂S₂O₃ in the solution as illustrated below:

Volume = 0.6 L

Molarity = 0.2 mol/L

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.2 = Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ / 0.6

Cross multiply

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ = 0.2 × 0.6

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ = 0.12 mole

Finally, we shall convert 0.12 mole to millimole (mmol). This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole = 1000 mmol

Therefore,

0.12 mole = 0.12 mole × 1000 mmol / 1 mole

0.12 mole = 120 = 1.2×10² mmole

Thus, the chemist added 1.2×10² mmole of Na₂S₂O₃

elements make up everything, and they combine to make compounds.
