I’m not sure what the answer is but I hope someone can help!! Maybe answer choice B?
Answer:
The answer is in the explanation.
Explanation:
A solution is defined as the <em>homogeneous mixture </em>of a solute (In this case, NaCl) and the solvent (water).
To prepare 1L of the solution, the student can weigh the 3g of NaCl in the volumetric flask but need to add slowly water to dissolve the NaCl (That is very soluble in water). When all NaCl is dissolved the student must transfer the solution to the 1L volumetric flask. Then, you must add more water to the beaker until "Clean" all the solute of the beaker to transfer it completely to the volumetric flask.
You can solve this problem through dimensional analysis.
First, find the molar mass of NaHCO3.
Na = 22.99 g
H = 1.008 g
C = 12.01 g
O (3) = 16 (3) g
Now, add them all together, you end with with the molar mass of NaHCO3.
22.99 + 1.008 + 12.01 + 16(3) = 84.008 g NaHCO3. This number means that for every mole of NaHCO3, there is 84.008 g NaHCO3. In simpler terms, 1 mole NaHCO3 = 84.008 g NaHCO3.
After finding the molar mass of sodium bicarbonate, now you can use dimensional analysis to solve for the number of moles present in 200. g of sodium bicarbonate.

Cross out the repeating units which are g NaHCO3, and the remaining unit is mole NaHCO3
200. * 1 = 200
200/ 84.008 = 2.38
Notice how there are only 3 sig figs in the answer. This is because the given problem only gave three sig figs.
Your final answer is 2.38 mol NaHCO3.
Precision relates to how close the answers are to each other, so I’d think it would be D because of the limited range between data points.
