does it matter, like do you have to round it to a really accurate decimal, i mean as long as you show the working out...

are u sure it's 0.03 moles/Litre???
i had that figure some where in the anwer because like.... initially it was that... den it was displaced and some copper ions are gone.. i calculated.. it's a diff answer

i think i got something like 0.007 ish...not sure...maybe it was a 3?
but yeah that sounds abt right. maybe too many zeroes too...haven't checked and dont wanna either.

From what I remember, initial conc of cu was 0.0125. I think the final conc turned out at about 0.007 but not sure on that.

hey thats what i got...hope im right. :)

Yeah, I got 0.029... All you had to do was calucluate the concentration of the extracted copper, and subtract it from the initial concentration. I got it, but it was the biggest fluke. I can't believe how well I did!

Yeah i got 0.03 too. Did it the same way as zepplelin but had stuff with moles and crap. Then divided it but the volume to get the concentration.

i got some answer in the most roundabout, non scientific way. just kinda followed my crazy logic, like "if this is this, then this is that". i think i got something close to the answers here so.... *fingers crossed* and i only came back to that in the last 5 minutes. couldn't figure it out before that.

i just calculated the number of moles in the original solution then calculated the nuber of moles which was reduced. took that away from the initial and then divided that by the volume of the liquid.
i had 0.007 in the end. then you had to divide this by the volume to get the answer

i can't remember what my answer was, but i remember that i found the number of moles of displaced copper, subtracted that from the number of moles of copper originally in the solution, then used the moles=(molarity x volume)/1000 equation to find the concentration
