Answer:
No. of moles [tex]\approx[/tex] 0.020
Explanation:
To calculate the number of moles of a substance in a solution given its concentration and volume, we use the following formula:
[tex]\boxed{\mathrm{No. \ of \ moles = Concentration \times Volume}}[/tex],
where concentration is in mol/dm³ (or M) and volume is in L.
In the question, we are told that the volume of the solution is 0.085 L and that its concentration is 0.23 M. Substituting these values into the formula above, we get:
No. of moles = 0.23 × 0.085
= 0.01955
[tex]\approx[/tex] 0.020 mol (3 s.f.)
Therefore, there are 0.020 moles of NH₄NO₃ in the solution.
