5. a. How many mol of sodium chloride, NaCl, are required to prepare 0.2 L of a 3 M solution?

b. How many grams is this (hint: molar mass of NaCl =
U?


Sagot :

a. 0.6 moles

b. 35.1 grams

Further explanation

Given

Volume = 0.2 L

Molarity = 3 M

Required

mol of Sodium chloride

Solution

Molarity shows the number of moles of solute in every 1 liter of solute or mmol in each ml of solution

[tex]\large{\boxed {\bold {M ~ = ~ \frac {n} {V}}}[/tex]

Where

M = Molarity

n = Number of moles of solute

V = Volume of solution

Input the value :

n = M x V

n = 3 M x 0.2 L

n = 0.6 moles

Mass of NaCl :

= mol x molar mass of NaCl

= 0.6 x 58.5 g/mol

= 35.1 grams
