SUMMARY

The discussion clarifies that converting molarity (0.1 M Pyridine) directly to milliliters (mL) is not feasible, as they represent different measurements: concentration versus volume. The correct approach involves determining the volume of pyridine needed to achieve a specific concentration in a solution. The steps include calculating the volume and concentration of the solution, determining the number of moles of pyridine, calculating the mass of pyridine, and finally, finding the volume of pyridine required.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of molarity and its units (moles/liter)
  • Basic knowledge of solution preparation
  • Familiarity with the concept of moles and mass
  • Ability to perform unit conversions in chemistry
NEXT STEPS
  • Learn how to calculate the number of moles from molarity and volume
  • Study the process of preparing solutions in a laboratory setting
  • Explore the relationship between mass and volume for liquids
  • Investigate the properties and uses of pyridine in chemical reactions
USEFUL FOR

Chemistry students, laboratory technicians, and anyone involved in solution preparation and concentration calculations will benefit from this discussion.

Homework Statement
I need to convert 0.1 M of pyridine to mL.
Molecular mass of pyridine is 79.1 g/mol. Density is 0.978 g/mL
Relevant Equations
C=n/v
.

The question makes no sense. Molarity is a unit of concentration and mL is a unit of volume. You can’t convert one into the other.
 
Perhaps you mean a certain volume of 0.1M pyridine contains how many mL of pyridine?

yes. How do i do that? thanks
 
Try again. What question, exactly are you hoping to answer?

0.1M Pyridine

0.1 (moles/liter) pyridine

0.1 (moles/(1000*mL)) pyridine
 
Are you trying to calculate how many ml of pyridine you need to disolve in a given volume of a solvent to get 0.1M solution?
 
Assuming I guess correctly what you are trying to do path to follow is: volume & concentration of the solution → number of moles of the substance → mass of the substance → volume of the substance itself.
