A solution of NaOH has a concentration of 25.00% by mass. What mass of NaOH is present in 0.250 g of this solution? Use the peri
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

1) 0.0625  g.

2) 0.0125 g.

Explanation:

<em>1) A solution of NaOH has a concentration of 25.00% by mass. What mass of NaOH is present in 0.250 g of this solution?</em>

  • We can use the relation:

mass% of NaOH = [(mass of NaOH)/(mass of solution)] x 100.

mass% of NaOH = 25.0%, mass of NaOH = ???  g, mass of solution = 0.250 g.

∴ mass of NaOH = (mass% of NaOH)(mass of solution)/100 = (25.0%)(0.250 g)/100 = 0.0625  g.

<em>2) What mass of NaOH must be added to the solution to increase the concentration to 30.00% by mass?</em>

We can use the relation:

mass% of NaOH = [(mass of NaOH)/(mass of solution)] x 100.

mass% of NaOH = 30.0%, mass of NaOH = ???  g, mass of solution = 0.250 g.

∴ mass of NaOH = (mass% of NaOH)(mass of solution)/100 = (30.0%)(0.250 g)/100 = 0.075  g.

∴ The mass of NaOH should be added = 0.075 - 0.0625 = 0.0125 g.
