Answer: 19 grams

Explanation:

percent by mass = (mass of part)/(mass of whole) * 100

this means that in this question, 12 = x/160 * 100, where x is the amount of NaCl.

this means 12/100 = x/160, and thus x = (160)(12/100)=19.2 grams

The closest option is B.

Answer:

Second Option: 19 grams

Explanation:

Total solution weight: 160 grams

percent of NaCl in the solution: 12%

You take these two numbers and multiply them with 12 being over 100:

160 * \frac{12}{100} = 19.2 grams

and then just round to the nearest whole number: 19 grams

What is the mass of sodium (Na) in 50 grams of table salt (NaCl)? Show your work.
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

19 g

Explanation:

Data Given:

Sodium Chloride (table salt) = 50 g

Amount of sodium (Na) = ?

Solution:

Molecular weight calculation:

NaCl = 23 + 35.5

NaCl = 58.5 g/mol

Mass contributed by Sodium = 23 g

calculate the mole percent composition of sodium (Na) in sodium Chloride.

Since the percentage of compound is 100

So,

                 Percent composition of sodium (Na) = 23 / 58.5 x 100

                  Percent of sodium (Na) = 39.3 %

It means that for ever gram of sodium chloride there is 0.393 g of Na is present.

So,

for the 50 grams of table salt (NaCl) the mass of Na will be

              mass of sodium (Na) = 0.393 x 50 g

              mass of sodium (Na) = 19 g
