Question

Determine the amount in grams of KCl that exists in 20.3 g of a solution that contains 1.14 % KCl by mass 1.14 g KCl

Answer 1

The mass of KCl that exists in 20.3 g of solution containing 1.14% by mass of KCl is 0.23 g

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of solution = 20.3 g

Percentage of KCl = 1.14% = 1.14 / 100 = 0.0114

Mass of KCl =?

$Percentage = \frac{mass of solute}{mass of solution} * 100\\\\0.0114 = \frac{mass of KCl}{20.3}$

Cross multiply

Mass of KCl = 0.0114 × 20.3

Mass of KCl = 0.23 g

Therefore, the mass of KCl in the solution is 0.23 g
