1. Calculate the moles of sodium sulfate:
* Molar mass of Na₂SO₄: (2 * 22.99 g/mol) + (32.06 g/mol) + (4 * 16.00 g/mol) = 142.04 g/mol
* Moles of Na₂SO₄: (15.5 g) / (142.04 g/mol) = 0.109 mol
2. Convert the volume to liters:
* Volume in liters: 35 mL * (1 L / 1000 mL) = 0.035 L
3. Calculate the molarity:
* Molarity (M): (0.109 mol) / (0.035 L) = 3.11 M
Therefore, the molarity of sodium sulfate in the solution is 3.11 M.
