Answer to Question #173653 in General Chemistry for Darui

Question

How would you prepare 100 mL of 0.035M NaCl (aq)? 

Answer 1

Proportion:

0.035 mol – 1000 mL

x mol – 1000 mL

$x = \frac{0.035 \times 100}{1000} = 0.0035 \;mol$

M(NaCl) = 58.44 g/mol

$m = n \times M = 0.0035 \times 58.44 = 0.204 \;g$

You have to add 0.204 g of solid NaCl to the 100 ml volumetric flask and add water to the mark.
