Question

ok this is on a worksheet so there isn't a textbook for thisone. Concentrated nitric acid is a solution that is 70%HNO3 by mass. Thedensity of this acid is 1.42 g/mL. What is the Molarity ofthis acid? i'd really appreciate some help on this one! it's got meslightly confused. ok this is on a worksheet so there isn't a textbook for thisone.

Explanation / Answer

In every 1 mL, there is 1.42 x 0.7 = 0.994g of HNO3 n = m / M = 0.994 / (1 + 14 + 16 x 3) = 0.01578mol Molarity = number of moles / Volume = 0.01578 / 0.001 = 15.78M Hope this helps!
