A simple way to go about this is that we look at the solubility curve, on the x axis we first look at the temperature and then the corresponding value of solute/100g H2O on the y axis, from the 4 curves above only NaNO3 has a curve that can accommodate 80g of salt at 40 without being Saturated since at 40 degrees it can accommodate 105g of salt to become completely Saturated.
Find the number of moles
C = n / V
C(Concentration) = 0.30 moles / L
V ( Volume) = 2 L
n = ??
n = C * V
n = 0.30 mol / L * 2 L
n = 0.60 mol
Find the molar mass
2Na = 23 * 2 = 46 grams
1S = 32 * 1 = 32 grams
O4 = 16 * 4 = 64 grams
Total = 142 grams / mol
Find the mass
n = given mass / molar mass
n = 0.06 mol
molar Mass = 142 grams / mol
given mass = ???
given mass = molar mass * mols
given mass = 142 * 0.6
given mass = 85.2 grams.
85.2 are in a 2 L solution that has a concentration of 0.6 mol/L
Explanation:
When a solid substance is dissolved in a liquid such as water, the intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules in the solid substance are overcome and they exist as ions in the solution. Hence the answer is 2.
