What weight of sodium carbonate will be required to prepare 250 mL of 0.05 N solution of sodium carbonate?

What mass of sodium carbonate would be required to prepare 250 ml of 0.1 M sodium carbonate?

please help and explain it to me, i really dont understand

you have a volume and a concentration so work out the moles n = (C x V)/1000

Then work out the mass m = n x Mr (you know that sodium carbonate is Na2CO3 so use the periodic table to work out the Mr)

Okay, so here is how you do it
What weight of sodium carbonate will be required to prepare 250 mL of 0.05 N solution of sodium carbonate?
First, you find the moles of sodium carbonate in the given solution. moles=concentraton x volume (n=cv) =0.1mol/dm3 x (250/1000)dm3 (0.1M = 0.1mol/dm3 and converting 250ml into dm3 by dividing by 1000) =0.025mol Next, you find out the molecular mass of Na2CO3= ( 23 x 2) + 12 + (16 x 3) = 46 + 12 + 48 =106 (g/mol) Then, you find out the mass of Na2CO3 needed to give .025 mol (the amount of moles in the solution) moles= mass / molar mass Therefore, mass = moles X molar mass =0.025 x 106 2.65g

Hope this helps

thanks but isnt sodium carbonate na2co3 and so will it be 0.025*106=2.56g! and also can you explain how it all works

What weight of sodium carbonate will be required to prepare 250 mL of 0.05 N solution of sodium carbonate?

What mass of calcium chloride would be required to prepare 2 litres of 0.5 M calcium chloride So do i find out the moles so (2*0.5)/1000= 0.001 so then moles= mass/molar mass so mass= moles* molar mass molar mass of cacl2 is 111 so 0.001*111= 0.111

i know iv gone wrong somewhere here

please help with next question im not sure where i went wrong i dont know if i had to divide by 1000 or not

convert L to ML = 2L = 2000ML 2000 X 0.5/1000= 1 1 x 111 = 111

Remember that ml=cm3 they're both the same.

you only divide by 1000 if you have cm^3 because you need it in dm^3. If the volume is in dm^3 do not divide by 1000. 1dm^3 = 1 litre

(Original post by cleveradam) convert L to ML = 2L = 2000ML 2000 X 0.5/1000= 1 1 x 111 = 111

Remember that ml=cm3 they're both the same.

why do i have to convert L to ML in the last question i just divided by 1000

ok cheers

how do i find the number of moles in an element if im given the amount of grams of the element

moles= mass/molar mass dw i was being dumb

dw i worked it out

You need to prepare 2.500 L of 1M sodium carbonate. What mass of sodium carbonate is required for this solution?

can u fix this one?

I just tried many times and I got incorrect the mass for Na2CO3. 105.99 g/mol

and I got for my question 264.975 g/mol so could check out for me please ?
