To calculate the number of moles we can use molarity, molarity relates the number of moles of solute to one liter of solution.

So we can replace molarity with:

$1.0M=\frac{1\text{mol solute}}{1L\text{ solution}}$

In this case, the solute is CuSO4. We replace in the equation:

So, the moles of CuSO4 are 0.108 moles
