Sure, let's solve the problem step-by-step:
1. Understand the Given Information:
- We have a solution with a volume of 1.50 liters (L).
- The molarity (concentration) of the solution is 0.050 moles per liter (M).
2. Recall the Formula for Moles:
The formula to find the number of moles ([tex]\(n\)[/tex]) from molarity (M) and volume (V) is:
[tex]\[
\text{moles} = \text{molarity} \times \text{volume}
\][/tex]
3. Substitute the Given Values:
- Molarity ([tex]\(M\)[/tex]) = 0.050 M
- Volume ([tex]\(V\)[/tex]) = 1.50 L
4. Perform the Multiplication:
[tex]\[
\text{moles} = 0.050 \, \text{M} \times 1.50 \, \text{L}
\][/tex]
5. Calculate the Result:
[tex]\[
\text{moles} = 0.075
\][/tex]
Therefore, the number of moles of [tex]\(AgNO_3\)[/tex] present in 1.50 liters of a 0.050 M solution is [tex]\(0.075\)[/tex].
