### Determining the Molarity of a Manganese(II) Chloride SolutionA student weighs out a 3.48 g sample of manganese(II) chloride, transfers it to a 125 mL volumetric flask, adds enough water to dissolve it, and then adds water to the 125 mL tic mark.**Problem:**What is the molarity of MnCl₂ in the resulting solution?**Solution:**To find the molarity, we need to follow these steps:1. **Calculate the molar mass of MnCl₂:** - Manganese (Mn): Atomic mass = 54.94 g/mol - Chlorine (Cl): Atomic mass = 35.45 g/mol (since there are two Cl atoms, multiply by 2) Molar mass of MnCl₂ = 54.94 g/mol + (2 × 35.45 g/mol) = 54.94 g/mol + 70.90 g/mol = 125.84 g/mol2. **Convert grams of MnCl₂ to moles:** \[\text{moles of MnCl₂} = \frac{\text{mass (g)}}{\text{molar mass (g/mol)}} = \frac{3.48 \, \text{g}}{125.84 \, \text{g/mol}} = 0.02765 \, \text{mol}\]3. **Convert the volume from mL to L:** \[125 \, \text{mL} = 0.125 \, \text{L}\]4. **Calculate the molarity (M):** \[\text{Molarity (M)} = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{liters of solution}} = \frac{0.02765 \, \text{mol}}{0.125 \, \text{L}} = 0.2212 \, \text{M}\]Therefore, the molarity of MnCl₂ in the resulting solution is **0.2212 M**.**Box for Answer:**\[ \boxed{0.2212 \, \text{M}} \]This question can be useful for students who want to understand the process of calculating the molarity of a solution from a given mass of solute and the final volume of solution.

Molarity of any solution is defined as the moles of solute present per litre of the solution Hence…
