To calculate the concentration of hydrochloric acid, we need to convert the volume of water from cm³ to liters and then use the formula:
Concentration (mol/L) = amount of solute (mol) / volume of solvent (L)
First, we convert the volume of water from cm³ to liters: 25 cm³ = 25/1000 = 0.025 L
Next, we need to convert the amount of hydrochloric acid from mg to g and then to mol: 4 mg = 0.004 g Molar mass of HCl = 1 g/mol (hydrogen) + 35.5 g/mol (chlorine) = 36.5 g/mol
Now, we can calculate the amount of hydrochloric acid in mol: 0.004 g / 36.5 g/mol = 0.000109 mol
Finally, we can calculate the concentration of hydrochloric acid: Concentration = 0.000109 mol / 0.025 L = 0.00436 mol/L
Therefore, the concentration of 4 mg of hydrochloric acid dissolved in 25 cm³ of water is 0.00436 mol/L.

Step 1: Convert the mass of HCl to moles.
mass of HCl = 4 mg = 0.004 g
molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol
moles of HCl = 0.004 g / 36.46 g/mol = 0.00011 mol
Step 2: Calculate the volume of the solution in liters.
volume = 25 cm³ = 0.025 L
Step 3: Calculate the concentration of HCl in molarity.
concentration = moles of HCl / volume of solution
concentration = 0.00011 mol / 0.025 L = 0.0044 M
Therefore, the concentration of 4 mg of hydrochloric acid dissolved in 25 cm³ of water is 0.0044 M.
