Create a poster (using a program such as Canva) outlining the math (show all your work, including equation(s) used and units included throughout and solution preparation steps (steps and equipment to make the solution) involved in preparing 500 ml of a 0.75 mol/l copper (ii) sulfate solution, CuSO4 (aq). You are starting with CuSO4 (s).
Accepted Answer
Here is a poster outlining the math and solution preparation steps involved in preparing 500 mL of a 0.75 mol/L copper (II) sulfate solution, CuSO4 (aq) from CuSO4 (s):
Materials
* CuSO4 (s)
* Distilled water
* Graduated cylinder
* Volumetric flask
* Analytical balance
Steps
1. Calculate the mass of CuSO4 (s) needed.
Mass = Molarity * Volume * Molar mass
0.75 mol/L * 0.5 L * 159.61 g/mol = 59.86 g
2. Weigh out the calculated mass of CuSO4 (s) and dissolve it in a small amount of distilled water in a beaker.
3. Transfer the solution to a 500-mL volumetric flask.
4. Add distilled water to the flask until the solution reaches the 500-mL mark.
5. Mix the solution thoroughly.
The final solution will be 500 mL of a 0.75 mol/L copper (II) sulfate solution, CuSO4 (aq).
