Answer:

25.8 g/dL

Explanation:

A chemist prepares a solution of aluminum sulfate by weighing out 116.0 g of aluminum sulfate into a 450. mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water. Calculate the concentration in g/dL of the chemist's aluminum sulfate solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Step 1: Given data

  • Mass of aluminum sulfate (m): 116.0 g
  • Volume of the solution (V): 450. mL

Step 2: Convert "V" to dL

We will use the following conversion factors.

  • 1 L = 1000 mL
  • 1 L = 10 dL

450. mL × 1 L/1000 mL × 10 dL/1 L = 4.50 dL

Step 3: Calculate the concentration (C) of aluminum sulfate if g/dL

We will use the following expression.

C = m/V = 116.0 g/4.50 dL = 25.8 g/dL
