Question

Succimer (C₄H₆O₄S₂) is used as a heavy-metal poisoning chelation treatment. Its aqueous solubility limit is 0.0133 M C₄H₆O₄S₂ . How many g C₄H₆O₄S₂ are contained in 423 mL solution ? 

Succimer (C₄H₆O₄S₂) is used as a heavy-metal poisoning chelation treatment. Its aqueous solubility limit is 0.0133 M C₄H₆O₄S₂. How many g C₄H₆O₄S₂ are contained in 423 mL solution?

### Conversion Steps:
1. **Starting Amount:**
   - 423 mL solution

2. **First Conversion:**
   - Convert mL to L.
   - \[(\frac{1\text{ L solution}}{1000\text{ mL solution}})\]

3. **Second Conversion:**
   - Use molarity to find moles of C₄H₆O₄S₂.
   - \[(\frac{0.0133\text{ mol C₄H₆O₄S₂}}{1\text{ L solution}})\]

4. **Third Conversion:**
   - Convert moles to grams using molar mass.
   - \[(\frac{182.2\text{ g C₄H₆O₄S₂}}{1\text{ mol C₄H₆O₄S₂}})\]

5. **Calculation:**
   - Result is 1.03 g C₄H₆O₄S₂.

### Feedback:
- **Incorrect, 2 attempts remaining**

**Error Message:**
Your second conversion factor between mol C₄H₆O₄S₂ and L solution is incorrect. In this problem, there is no given relationship between the quantity of C₄H₆O₄S₂ and the volume of solution. Reconsider your units in this factor and try again.
