Question:

A {eq}\displaystyle \rm 0.5118 \ g {/eq} sample of {eq}\displaystyle \rm CaCO_3 {/eq} is dissolved in concentrated {eq}\displaystyle \rm HCl \ (12 \ M) {/eq} the solution was diluted to {eq}\displaystyle \rm 250 \ mL {/eq} in a volumetric flask to obtain a solution for standardizing the EDTA titrant.

How many moles of {eq}\displaystyle \rm Ca^{2+} {/eq} is in a {eq}\displaystyle \rm 25 \ mL {/eq} aliquot of the solution?

Molarity

The concentration of a solution can be expressed in molarity. Molarity can be calculated by dividing the moles of the substance divided by the total volume of the solution in liters.
