Answer to Question #325537 in General Chemistry for Sophie

Question

If a student uses a sodium chloride solution containing 150g/dm³ what mass of sodium chloride is contained in 40cm³ of this solution ?

Answer 1

Solution:

Sodium chloride = NaCl

Mass of NaCl = (150 g NaCl / 1 dm³ soln) × (40 cm³ soln) × (1dm³ / 1000 cm³) = 6 g NaCl

Mass of NaCl = 6 g

Answer: 6 grams of sodium chloride (NaCl)
