A solution of titrant has a concentration of 0.25 M. Which statement about the solution must be

Question

correct?(1 point)
There is 0.25 mol of titrant for each liter of solution.
There is 0.25 mol for each liter of analyte.
The solution contains 0.25 mol of titrant.
The titration will produce 0.25 mol of salt.

Answer 1

The correct statement about the solution with a concentration of 0.25 M is:

There is 0.25 mol of titrant for each liter of solution.

This statement accurately describes the relationship between molarity, the number of moles of solute, and the volume of the solution. Molarity (M) is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

The other statements can be clarified as follows:

• "There is 0.25 mol for each liter of analyte." is incorrect; it pertains to the analyte, which may not have the same concentration.
• "The solution contains 0.25 mol of titrant." is incomplete, as it does not specify a volume (this would be true only for 1 liter of solution).
• "The titration will produce 0.25 mol of salt." cannot be assumed without knowing the stoichiometry of the reaction involved.
