Question #e6e4b
1 Answer
The solution's osmolarity will be
Osmolarity is defined as the number of osmoles of solute per liter of solution. One osmol represents 1 mole of particles that contributes to the osmotic pressure of the solution. In your case,
One mole of copper (II) sulfate will dissociate and produce 2 osmoles of ions in solution.
Now you need to determine the number of moles of copper (II) sulfate that your solution will contain. You can do this by using the given solubility of
So,
Now use the given molar mass to go from moles to grams
Use this to determine the molarity of the final solution
This means that the solution's osmolarity will be
