Find the volume (in mL) of 5.0 M HNO3 required to make 250 mL of 0.30 M solution.
Your answer was: 15

Your description was: Slowly add 15 mL of 5 M HNO3 to 125 mL of water, and bring total volume to 250 mL with thorough mixing. Accepted solution: 250 mL x 0.30 mol/L = 75 m mol HNO3 x 1/5.0 L/mol = 15 mL. To the correct number of significant figures, 15 mL.

To prepare this solution, add 15 mL of 5.0 M HNO3 to about 100 mL of water. Add enough water to bring the total volume to 250 mL of solution.


Find the mass in grams of Na2CO3•10H2O required to make 750 mL of 0.20 M solution.

Your answer was: 43

Accepted solution: Mass Na2CO3•10H2O = 750 mL x 1 L/1000 mL x 0.20 mol/L x 286.142 g/mol = 42.9213 g Na2CO3•10H2O

To the correct number of significant figures, 43 g.
