You need to make an aqueous solution of 0.215 M aluminum bromide for an experiment in lab, using a 300 mL volumetric flask. How much solid aluminum bromide should you add

We have to add 17.2 grams of aluminium bromide

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Molarity of the aluminum bromide solution = 0.215 M

Volume = 300 mL = 0.300 L

Molar mass aluminium bromide = 266.69 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles Aluminium bromide

moles AlBr3 = volume * molarity

Moles AlBr3 = 0.300 L * 0.215 M

Moles AlBR3 = 0.0645 moles

Step 3: Calculate mass aluminium bromide

Mass aluminium bromide = moles AlBr3 * molar mass AlBr3

Mass aluminium bromide = 0.0645 moles * 266.69 g/mol

Mass aluminium bromide = 17.2 grams

We have to add 17.2 grams of aluminium bromide
