Using the formula Density = Mass / Volume,

Mass = Density x Volume
Mass = 2.75 x 8 = 22g

Answer: The correct answer is 22 g.

Explanation:

The expression for the relation between mass and density is as follows;

$Density=\frac{m}{V}$

Here, m is the mass of the object and V is the volume of the object.

It is given in the problem that A sample of marble has a volume of $8 cm^{3}$ and a density of $2.75 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}$ .

Calculate the mass of a sample marble.

$m= (Density)(V)$

Put $V=8 cm^{3}$ and $Density=2.75 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}$ .

$m= (2.75)(8)$

m=22 g

Therefore, the mass of a sample of a marble is 22 g.

If 2.60 g of NaBr are dissolved in enough water to make 160. mL of solution, what is the molar concentration of

navik [9.2K]

This problem has two parts; the first one asking for the concentration of NaBr given both its mass and volume and the second one asking for its volume given both mass and concentration. The answers turn out to be 0.158 M and 211 mL.

<h3>Molarity</h3>

In chemistry, the use of units of concentration depends on both the substances to analyze and their amounts. In such a way, for molarity, one needs the following relationship between the moles of solute and volume of solution:

$M=\frac{n}{V}$

Thus, for the first part of the problem we first calculate the moles in 2.60 g of NaBr via its molar mass:

$2.60g*\frac{1mol}{102.89g} =0.0253mol$

Next, we convert the 160. mL to L by dividing by 1000 in order to obtain 0.160 L to subsequently calculate the molarity:

$M=\frac{0.0253mol}{0.160L}=0.158M$

Next, since the moles remain the same and for the second part we are asked for the volume given the concentration, one can solve for the volume so as to obtain:

$V=\frac{n}{M} =\frac{0.158M}{0.120mol/L}\\ \\V=0.211L$
