Question:

A 0.1052 g sample of copper metal is dissolved in 55 mL of concentrated {eq}HNO_3 {/eq} to form {eq}Cu_2 {/eq}+ ions and then water is added to make a total volume of 208.5 mL.

Calculate the molarity of {eq}Cu_2 {/eq}+.

Molarity

Molarity is another name for the concentration and is the number of moles of Solute per litre of solution.

Molarity is important when we are considering pH as well as neutralisation reactions

First, to solve this question we must find the number of moles of Copper metal dissolved:

{eq}n(Cu) = \frac{m(Cu)}{A(Cu)} = \frac{0.1052}{63.546} =...
