To make a saturated solution, 36 g of sodium chloride is dissolved
in 100 g of water at 293 K. Find its concentration at this temperature
Answer
Here,
The solute is sodium chloride and,
The solvent is water .
Mass of solute = mass of sodium chloride = 36g
Mass of solvent = mass of water = 100g
Mass of solution = Mass of solute + Mass of solvent
= 36g + 100g
= 136g
Concentration of solution = (Mass of solute (g)/Mass of solution(g)) x 100%
= (36g/136g) x100%
= 9x100/34 %
= 26.47 %
