Question

A solution was prepared by dissolving 31.0 g of kcl in 225 g of water. part a calculate the mass percent of kcl in the solution.

Answer 1

Answer: Mass % KCL: Add the grams of both compounds (31.0 g KCL + 225 g water) to find total mass and then divide the grams of KCL over the total mass, then multiply by 100: ( 31.0 g KCL / 31.0 g + 225 G) * 100% Mole fraction KCL Calculate the moles of KCL and water and add them to find the total moles (Moles of KCL + moles of water). Then, divide the number of KCL moles over the total moles. moles of KCL/ moles kcl + moles water= mole fraction of KCL
