Your body needs healthy fats for energy and other functions. But too much saturated fat can cause cholesterol to build up in your arteries (blood vessels). Saturated fats raise your LDL (bad) cholesterol. High LDL cholesterol increases your risk for heart disease and stroke.

A 3.0% (m/v) potassium chloride solution has a volume of 25.0 mL. How many moles of potassium chloride are in the sample?

Oduvanchick [21]

Using your knowledge of m/v = g/mL, you can start by putting that in the equation as:

$\frac{3g}{100mL}$

And you know that the volume is 25 mL. So you could put this into the equation as:

$\frac{25mL}{1}$

And you also know that the molar mass of KCl is 74.55g (K = 39.1 g/mol and Cl = 35.45 g/mol. Add them together to get 74.55g/mol).

We can then put this in the equation as:

$\frac{1mol}{74.55g}$

Then, we can mulitply them all together:

$\frac{3g}{100mL}* \frac{25mL}{1} * \frac{1mol}{74.55g}=0.01 mol$

And now we know that there are 0.01 moles of KCl in the sample.
