We can use a ratio to solve this question. Lets refer to the amount formed by the formula as a serving
1 serving needs 3/8 gal
We want to create 7/9 servings extra, so
1 + 7/9 = 16/7
1 : 3/8
16/7 : x
1/(3/8) = (16/7) / x
8 / 3 = 16x / 7
x = 7/6
He needs to use 7/6 gallons of water.

Oftentimes solubility of a compound limits the concentration of the solution that can be prepared. Use the solubility data given
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

NaNO3 (solubility = 89.0 g/100 g H2O)

Explanation:

The solubility of a specie is the amount of solute that will dissolve in one litre of the solvent. Solubility is usually expressed in units of molarity.

Now let us calculate the molarity of the NaNO3 (solubility = 89.0 g/100 g H2O)

Molar mass of NaNO3= 23+14+3(16)= 85gmol-1

Mass of solute=89.0g

Amount of solute= mass of NaNO3/molar mass of NaNO3

Amount of solute= 89.0g/85.0 gmol-1

= 1.0moles of NaNO3

Note that 100g of water=100cm^3 of water.

If 1.0 moles of NaNO3 dissolve in 100cm^3 or water therefore,

x moles of NaNO3 will dissolve in 1000cm^3 of water

x= 1.0 × 1000/ 100

x= 10.0 moles of NaNO3
