Answer:
a) Molarity = 0.713 M
b) volume = 5.51 L
c) Number of moles = 16.01 moles
Explanation:
A) What is the molarity of a 4.15L solution that contains 173 g of sodium chloride?
Step 1: Data given
Volume = 4.15 L
Mass of NaCl = 173 grams
Molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol
Step 2: Calculate moles of NaCl
Number of moles NaCl = Mass NaCl / molar mass
Moles NaCl = 173 grams / 58.44 g/mol
Moles NaCl = 2.96 moles
Step 3: Calculate molarity of solution
Molarity = moles NacL/ volume
Molarity = 2.96 moles / 4.15L
Molarity = 0.713 M
b) Determine the volume of this solution that would contain 3.93 moles of sodium chloride.
Step 1: Data given
Number of moles = 3.93 moles
Molarity = 0.713 M
Step 2: Calculate volume
Volume = Moles/ Molarity
Volume = 3.93 mol/0.713 M
volume = 5.51 L
c) Determine the number of moles of sodium chloride in 22.45 L of this solution.
Step 1: Data given
Volume = 22.45 L
Molarity = 0.713 M
Step 2: Calculate number of moles
Moles NaCl = Molarity * volume
Moles NaCl = 0.713 * 22.45 L
Moles NaCl = 16.01 moles
