110 g/cc is larger than the density of iridium. Certainly you meant 1.10 g/cc.
To ease the calculations, take 1 liter of the solution. Its mass is m = V*D = 1000*1.10 = 1100 g = 1.10 kg The mass of sulfuric acid is m(acid) = m(solution)*w(acid) = 1100*0.15 = 165 g m(water) = m(solution) - m(acid) = 935 g The molarity is defined as the number of moles of the solute per liter of the solution. The molality is defined as the number of moles of the solute per kilogram of the solvent. To obtain the molarity and molality of the solution we need the number of moles of acid: n(H2SO4) = m(H2SO4)/M(H2SO4) = 1.684 mol Hence we can obtain the molarity and molality: c(H2SO4) = n(H2SO4)/V(solution) = 1.68 mol/l μ(H2SO4) = n(H2SO4)/m(water) = 1.684/0.935 = 1.80 mol/kg
Numbers and figures are an essential part of our world, necessary for almost everything we do every day. As important…
