For this question, you have to work backwards and use the formula n=CV
If you have a K
+ con
c of 0.100 mol dm
-3 and a volume of 1.00 dm
3, that means you have 0.100 mol K
+ ions (since n=CV).
K
2SO
4 ==> 2K
+ + SO
42- One mole of potassium sulphate will dissociate in water to produce two moles of K
+ ions and so you have to work backwards. If you have 0.100 mol of K
+ ions, you must have had 0.0500 mol of K
2SO
4 to begin with.
Now, to find the volume you have to rearrange n=CV, so V=n/C.
Therefore the volume of K
2SO
4 = 0.0500/0.200 = 0.250 dm
3 = 250cm
3. Therefore the answer is B.
Hope this helps you out
