2. A 3.140 molal solution of NaCl is prepared. How many grams of NaCl (58.44 g/mol) are present in a sample containing 1.994 kg of water?

Expert Solution
Problem 1

given that,
Molarity = 1.45 M = 1.45 mol/ 1L 
density = 1.12 g/mL

volume of the solution = 1L = 1000mL 
mass of the solution = 1000mL x 1.12g/mL = 1120 g
moles of the solute = 1.45 moles CaCl2
mass of CaCl2=1.45 mol x 110.98g/mol = 160.921 g 

mass percent of CaCl2= mass of CaCl2total mass of the solution x 100
mass percent of CaCl2 = 160.921 g1120 g x 100 = 14.3679 % ~ 14.37 %
