Chapter 1, Problem 1.12P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Amount of anhydrous boric acid $B{\left(OH\right)}_3$ to be dissolved to make $2L$ of $0.050\text{ M}$$B{\left(OH\right)}_3$ solution has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Molarity is one of the parameters used to express concentration of a solution.  It is expressed as,

  $\text{Molarity = }\frac{number\text{ of }molesof\text{ solute}}{volume\text{ of solution in L}}$

Formula mass of a compound is equivalent to sum of atomic mass of the elements in the empirical formula of the compound.
