Question 15 How many grams of NaCl are required to make 500.0 mL of a 1.500 M solution? 58.40 g 175.3 g 14.60 g 43.83 g

Answer 1

Hi!

To make 500 mL of a 1,500 M solution of NaCl you'll require 43,83 g

To calculate that, you will need to use a conversion factor to go from the volume of the 1,500 M solution to the required grams. For this conversion factor, you'll use the definition for Molar concentration (M=mol/L) and the molar mass of NaCl. The conversion factor is shown below:

$gNaCl=500mLsol* \frac{1L}{1000 mL}* \frac{1,500 mol NaCl}{1Lsol}* \frac{58,4428 g NaCl}{1 mol NaCl} \\ =43,83gNaCl$

Have a nice day!
