How much sodium carbonate is needed for 1 L of a 0.1 mol L−1 solution if its molar mass is 106 g mol−1?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: 10.6 g
For solution preparation, first find required moles using n = M × V. Here n = 0.1 mol L−1 × 1 L = 0.1 mol. Convert moles to mass using m = n × molar mass = 0.1 × 106 = 10.6 g. Therefore, option B is correct. The value 106 g would represent one mole, giving a 1.0 M solution in one litre.
