Question:

How many grams of {eq}Fe(NO_3)_3 \cdot 9H_2O {/eq} are required to prepare 550.0 mL of a 0.289 M solution of {eq}Fe(NO_3)_3 \cdot 9H_2O {/eq}?

Solution Chemistry:

In chemistry we often have reactions take place in aqueous solution (dissolved in water) as this allows particles in chemicals to be mobile and thus more able to collide (as particles must collide for a chemical reaction to happen). Concentration is a measurement of how much solute there is per unit of volume of solvent. Solutions are often prepared using a volumetric flask as it has less uncertainty compared to preparing the solution other glassware like beakers.
