If the density of methanol is 0.793 kg/L, what is its volume needed for making 2.5 L of its 0.25M solution?

Answer»

Molarity = number of mole of solute/volume of SOLVENT in liters
0.25 = number of mole of methanol/2.5
no. of mole of methanol = 0.25×2.5 = 0.625 mole
WEIGHT of methanol = no. of mole of methanol×molecular weight of methanol
                            = 0.625×32
                            = 20 gram
weight of methanol = 20/1000 kg
volume = weight of methanol/density
           = (20/1000)/0.793
           = 20/793
           = 0.025liter
