Astudent has 70.5 ml of a 0.463 m aqueous solution of sodium bromide. the density of the solution is 1.22 g/ml. find the following: a.) mass of the solution b.) grams of sodium bromide c.) molality of the solution d.) % (m/v) of the solution e.) % (m/m) of the solution

a.) 86.01 g.

b.) 3.36 g.

c.) 0.394 m ≅ 0.40 m.

d.) 4.77%.

e.) 3.9%.

Explanation:

a.) mass of the solution:

The density of the solution is the mass per unit volume.

∵ Density of solution = (mass of solution)/(volume of the solution).

∴ Mass of the solution = (density of solution)*(volume of the solution) = (1.22 g/mL)*(70.5 mL) = 86.01 g.

b.) grams of sodium bromide  :

∵ M = (no. of moles of NaBr)/(Volume of the solution (L))

∴ no. of moles of NaBr = M*(Volume of the solution (L)) = (0.463 M )*(0.0705 L) = 0.0326 mol.

∵ no. of moles of NaBr = (mass of NaBr)/(molar mass of NaBr)

∴ mass of NaBr = (no. of moles of NaBr)*(molar mass of NaBr) = (0.0326 mol)*(102.894 g/mol) = 3.36 g.

c.) molality of the solution:

∵ m = (no. of moles of NaBr)/(mass of the soluvent (kg))

no. of moles of NaBr = 0.0326 mol,

mass of solvent = mass of the solution - mass of NaBr = 86.01 g - 3.36 g = 82.65 g = 0.08265 kg.

∴ m = (no. of moles of NaBr)/(mass of the soluvent (kg)) = (0.0326 mol)/(0.08265 kg) = 0.394 m ≅ 0.40 m.

d.) % (m/v) of the solution:

∵ (m/v)% = [(mass of solute) /(volume of the solution)]* 100

∴ (m/v)% = [(3.36 g)/(70.5 mL)]* 100 = 4.77%.

e.) % (m/m) of the solution:

∵ (m/m)% = [(mass of solute) /(mass of the solution)]* 100

∴ (m/m)% = [(3.36 g)/(86.01 g)] * 100 = 3.9 %.

most historians agree that gabriel mouton, the vicar of st. paul’s church in lyons, france, is the “founding father” of the metric system. he proposed a decimal system of measurement in 1670. mouton based it on the length of one minute of arc of a great circle of the earth (now called a nautical mile, 1852 meters). he also proposed the swing-length of a pendulum with a frequency of one beat per second as the unit of length (about 25 cm). a pendulum beating with this length would have been fairly easy to produce, thus facilitating the widespread distribution of uniform standards. over the years, his work was revised, improved, and extended by a number of french scientists.

the political sponsor of weights and measures reform in the french revolutionary national assembly was the bishop of autun, better known as talleyrand. under his auspices, the french academy appointed several committees to carry out the work of developing a usable system of weights and measures for france. one of the committees recommended a decimalized measurement system based upon a length equal to one ten-millionth of the length of a quadrant of the earth’s meridian (i.e., one ten-millionth of the distance between the equator and the north pole).
