The correct Answer is:
To calculate the molarity of the oxalic acid solution, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given data - Mass of oxalic acid, \( (COOH)_2 \cdot 2H_2O = 0.63 \, \text{g} \) - Volume of the solution = 500 ml ### Step 2: Convert the volume from milliliters to liters To convert milliliters to liters, we use the conversion factor \( 1 \, \text{L} = 1000 \, \text{mL} \). \[ \text{Volume in liters} = \frac{500 \, \text{mL}}{1000} = 0.5 \, \text{L} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the molar mass of oxalic acid The molar mass of oxalic acid, \( (COOH)_2 \cdot 2H_2O \), can be calculated as follows: - Carbon (C): \( 2 \times 12.01 \, \text{g/mol} = 24.02 \, \text{g/mol} \) - Hydrogen (H): \( 2 \times 1.008 \, \text{g/mol} + 4 \times 1.008 \, \text{g/mol} = 6.016 \, \text{g/mol} \) - Oxygen (O): \( 4 \times 16.00 \, \text{g/mol} = 64.00 \, \text{g/mol} \) Adding these together: \[ \text{Molar mass} = 24.02 + 6.016 + 64.00 = 94.036 \, \text{g/mol} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the number of moles of oxalic acid Using the formula for moles: \[ \text{Number of moles} = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{molar mass}} \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Number of moles} = \frac{0.63 \, \text{g}}{126.0 \, \text{g/mol}} \approx 0.005 \, \text{moles} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the molarity of the solution Molarity (M) is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution: \[ \text{Molarity} = \frac{\text{number of moles}}{\text{volume in liters}} \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Molarity} = \frac{0.005 \, \text{moles}}{0.5 \, \text{L}} = 0.01 \, \text{M} \] ### Final Answer The molarity of the oxalic acid solution is \( 0.01 \, \text{M} \). ---
