Answer:

  • 0.07 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Assuming copper sulfate has same density as water

Chemical to water ratio as per given is:

  • 250 kg : 1000 liter = 1 kg : 4 liter

Lab solution is 350 ml

Converting to same ratio as above:

350/(1 + 4) = 70 ml

  • 70 ml : 280 ml = 70 g : 180 ml = 0.07 kg : 180 ml

Answer is 0.07 kg
