1. The mass of a weigh boat containing NaCl (58.44 ± 0.01 g/mol) was 3.6865 ± 0.0002 g. The mass of the empty weigh boat was 2.1022 ± 0.0002 g. The NaCl was quantitatively transferred to a 500.00 ± 0.20 mL volumetric flask, and the solution was diluted to volume and mixed. Calculate (i) the molar concentration of the prepared NaCl solution and (ii) the absolute uncertainty in the NaCl concentration. Report the concentration and absolute uncertainty using an appropriate number of significant figures.

1. The mass of a weigh boat containing NaCl (58.44 ± 0.01 g/mol) was 3.6865 ± 0.0002 g.
The mass of the empty weigh boat was 2.1022 ± 0.0002 g. The NaCl was quantitatively
transferred to a 500.00 ± 0.20 mL volumetric flask, and the solution was diluted to volume and
mixed. Calculate (i) the molar concentration of the prepared NaCl solution and (ii) the absolute
uncertainty in the NaCl concentration. Report the concentration and absolute uncertainty using
an appropriate number of significant figures.
