A 200. gram sample of a salt solution contains 0.050 grams of NaCl. What is the concentration of the solution in parts per million (ppm)?

2.5 × 10² ppm

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Step 2: Convert 0.050 g to μg

We will use the conversion factor 1 g = 10⁶ μg.

0.050 g × 10⁶ μg/1 g = 5.0 × 10⁴ μg

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of NaCl in ppm

The concentration of NaCl in ppm is equal to the micrograms of NaCl per gram of the sample.

5.0 × 10⁴ μg NaCl/200. g = 2.5 × 10² ppm

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
