Amass of 100.0 g of solute is dissolved in water so that 850. ml of a 0.7500 m solution has been prepared. what is the molar mass of the solute?

156.86 g / mol

Explanation:

We start from the molarity law  

Cm = n / V

n = w / M

then

Cm = (w / M) / V

Cm = w / (M × V)

where:

Cm is the molarity  

n number of moles

w a mass of the solute  

M is the molar mass of the solute (which is needed)

V the volume of the solution in liters

Then the M can be calculated as following:  

M = w / (Cm × V)

M = 100 / (0.75 × 0.85) = 156.86 g / mol

alkaline metals are lithium, sodium, rubidium, potassium, cesium and francium.

alkali metals have electronegativity from 0.7 to 1, lowest in periodic table of elements, which means that alkali metals (i group in periodic table) has positive oxidation number in compounds.

electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

alkaline metals (far left in main group) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons,

for example, potassium is the alkali metal and has a single valence electron in the outer electron shell.

electron configuration of potassium is: ₁₉k 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹.

they can not exist alone in nature, because they are very reactive.
