Question

typical seawarer contains 2.7g of salt (sodium chloride,Nacl)per 100ml (100*10-3L).what is the molarity of Nacl in the ocean?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Molarity = 0.5 M

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of NaCl = 2.7 g

Volume = 100 mL(100×10⁻³L)

Molarity of solution = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in litter

Number of moles:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 2.7 g/ 58.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.05 mol

Molarity = number of moles / volume in litte

Molarity = 0.05 mol / 100×10⁻³L

Molarity = 0.5 M
