Answer:
6.61%
Explanation:
You know that the equation to find the mass percent is "mass(%) = (mass of solute)/(mass of solution)". Now, to find the mass of solute (NaCl), we know that it is given by 1.2 moles/liter and its molecular weight is 58.44 g/mol, so if you multiply those quantities the result will be 70.128 g/liter. And now we need to calculate the mass of solution, that is given by the density of solution multiplied by the volume (1000ml). Finally we just need to divide the mass of solute (70.128) by the mass of solution (1060) and multiply it by 100.
Answer: The mass percent of sodium chloride in solution is 6.616 %
Explanation:
Molarity is defined as the number of moles present in one liter of solution.
Mathematically,
[tex]\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}[/tex]
We are given:
Molarity of NaCl solution = 1.20 M
This means that 1.20 moles of NaCl is present in 1 L or 1000 mL of solution
- To calculate the mass for given number of moles, we use the equation:
[tex]\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}[/tex]
Molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol
Moles of NaCl = 1.20 moles
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]1.20mol=\frac{\text{Mass of NaCl}}{58.44g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of NaCl}=(1.20mol\times 58.44g/mol)=70.13g[/tex]
- To calculate the mass of solution, we use the equation:
[tex]\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}[/tex]
Density of solution = 1.06 g/mL
Volume of solution = 1000 mL
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]1.06g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of solution}}{1000mL}\\\\\text{Mass of solution}=(1.06g/mL\times 1000mL)=1060g[/tex]
- To calculate the mass percentage of sodium chloride in solution, we use the equation:
[tex]\text{Mass percent of sodium chloride}=\frac{\text{Mass of sodium chloride}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 100[/tex]
Mass of solution = 1060 g
Mass of sodium chloride = 70.13 g
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]\text{Mass percent of sodium chloride}=\frac{70.13g}{1060g}\times 100=6.616\%[/tex]
Hence, the mass percent of sodium chloride in solution is 6.616 %
