Water clarity is a measure of how far down light can penetrate through the water. The clearer the water is the farther light can go down. This is important because with water clarity we can find out how much living things that part of the water can support. Clearer water allows light to reach farther down, which can allow aquatic plants to grow deeper in the water.

What is the molality of a solution that is obtained by dissolving 2.922 g of NaCl into 1000.0 g of water if the molar mass of Na

never [62]

In order to find molarity, you must first find the number of moles that was dissolved.

Now, Moles = Mass ÷ Molar Mass

⇒ Moles of NaCl = 2.922 g ÷ 58.44 g/mol

= 0.05 moles

∴ the Molarity of the NaCl is 0.05 M [Option 1]

The molar mass of gallium (Ga) is 69.72 g/mol.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

2.35 x 10²⁰ atoms Ga

Explanation:

After converting from mg to g, use the molar mass as the unit converter to convert to moles. Then using Avogadro's number, 6.022 x 10²³ convert from moles to atoms of Ga.

$27.2mgGa*\frac{1g}{1000mg} *\frac{1 mol Ga}{69.72gGa} *\frac{6.022*10^2^3 atoms Ga}{1 molGa} = 2.349 * 10^2^0 atoms Ga$
