Answer: The amount of p-toluidine hydrochloride contained is 2.4 moles.
Explanation:
To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:
[tex]\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}[/tex]
Molarity of p-toluidine hydrochloride solution = 0.167 M
Volume of solution = 70. mL
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
[tex]0.167=\frac{\text{Moles of p-toluidine hydrochloride}\times 1000}{70}\\\\\text{Moles of p-toluidine hydrochloride}=\frac{(0.167\times 70}{1000}=2.38mol=2.4mol[/tex]
Hence, the amount of p-toluidine hydrochloride contained is 2.4 moles.
