Answer:

0.136g

Explanation:

A student dissolved 5.00 g of Co(NO3)2 in enough water to make 100. mL of stock solution. He took 4.00 mL of the stock solution and then diluted it with water to give 275. mL of a final solution. How many grams of NO3- ion are there in the final solution?

[tex]Co(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow Co^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)[/tex]

Initial mole of Co(NO3)2  [tex]=\frac{mass}{molar mass}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{5.00}{182.94} \\\\=0.02733mol[/tex]

Mole of Co(NO3)2 in final solution

[tex]=\frac{4.00}{100}\times 0.02733\\\\=0.04\times 0.02733\\\\= 0.001093mol[/tex]

Mole of  NO3- in final solution = 2 x Mole of Co(NO3)2

[tex]=2\times 0.001093\\\\=0.002186mol[/tex]

Mass of  NO3- in final solution is mole x Molar mass of NO3

[tex]=0.002186\times62.01\\\\=0.136g[/tex]

The final solution contains 0.24 g of nitrate ion.

Number of moles of  Co(NO3)2 =  5.00 g/183 g/mol = 0.027 moles

Number of moles = concentration × volume

concentration = Number of moles /volume

Volume of solution = 100 mL or 0.1 L

concentration =  0.027 moles/0.1 L = 0.27 M

Using the dilution formula;

C1V1 = C2V2

C1 =  0.27 M

V1 = 4.00 mL

C2 = ?

V2 =  275. mL

C2 = C1V1/V2

C2 = 0.27 × 4.00/ 275

C2 = 0.0039 M

Number of moles of NO3- ion in Co(NO3)2 = 0.0039 M × 62 g/mol = 0.24 g
