Question 1 of 5

A solution of Sodium Chloride has a normality of 0.3650 N. What is the molarity of this solution? Answer to 4 significant figures.

Type in your answer and PRESS ENTER
M
The molarity of the solution is 0.3650 M.
  1. Find the mass of one equivalent of Sodium Chloride.
    Mass of Equivalent = RMM/Valency = 58.5/1 g = 58.5 g
  2. Find the mass of Sodium Chloride in 1000 ml of solution.
    1000 ml of solution contains 0.3650 equivalents of Sodium Chloride.
    Mass of Sodium Chloride = Number of Equivalents x Mass of Equivalent
    Mass of Sodium Chloride = 0.3650 x 58.5 g = 21.3525 g
  3. Find the number of moles of Sodium Chloride in 1000 ml of solution.
    Number of Moles = Mass/RMM = 21.3525/58.5 = 0.36500 moles
The concentration of Sodium Chloride is 0.3650 moles/1000 ml = 0.3650 M to 4 sig figs.

No, that is not the correct answer.

Question 2 of 5

The normality of a solution of Sodium Acid Phosphate BP is 0.2068 N. What is the molality of the solution? The density of the solution is 1.008 g/ml. Answer to 4 significant figures.

Type in your answer and PRESS ENTER.
molal
The molality of the solution is 0.2119 molal.
  1. Find the mass of Sodium Acid Phosphate (SAP) in 1000 ml of solution.
    Mass of SAP Equivalent = RMM/Valency = 156.0/1 g = 156.0 g
    Mass of SAP = Number of Equivalents x Mass of Equivalent = 0.2068 x 156 g
    Mass of SAP = 32.2608 g
  2. Find the number of moles of Sodium Acid Phosphate present in 1000 ml of solution.
    Moles of SAP = Mass/RMM = 32.2608/156.0 = 0.2068 moles
  3. Find the mass of solvent in 1000 ml of solution.
    Mass of 1000 ml of solution = 1000 x 1.008 g = 1008 g
    Mass of Solvent = Mass of Solution - Mass of SAP = 1008 - 32.2608 g = 975.7392 g
  4. Find the number of moles of SAP associated with 1000 g of solvent.
    975.7392 g of solvent are associated with 0.2068 moles of SAP. Thus:
    1000 g of solvent are associated with 1000/975.7392 x 0.2068 = 0.21194 moles of SAP.
The concentration of SAP is 0.2119 moles/1000 g of solvent ie 0.2119 molal to 4 sig figs.

No, that is not the correct answer.

Question 3 of 5


The normality of a solution of Sodium Acid Phosphate BP (RMM 156.0) is 0.2068 N. What is the mole fraction of WATER? The density of the solution is 1.008 g/ml and the RMM of Water is 18.02. Answer to 4 decimal places.

Type in your answer and PRESS ENTER.
The mole fraction of water is 0.9962.
  1. Find the number of moles of Sodium Acid Phosphate in 1000 ml of solution.
    Mass of One Equivalent of SAP = RMM/Valency = 156.0/1 = 156.0 g
    Mass of SAP = Number of SAP Eq x Mass of Eq = 0.2068 x 156.0 g = 32.2608 g
    Moles of SAP = Mass/RMM = 32.2608/156.0 = 0.2068 moles
  2. Find the mass of 1000 ml of solution - use the given density of 1.008 g/ml
    1 ml of solution weighs 1.008 g. THUS: 1000 ml of solution weighs 1008 g.
  3. Find the mass of water in 1008 g of solution.
    Mass of Water = Mass of Solution - Mass of SAP = 1008 - 32.3608 g = 975.7392 g
  4. Find the mole fraction of water.
    Moles of SAP = 0.2068 moles
    Moles of Water = Mass/RMM = 975.7392/18.02 = 54.1476 moles
    Mole Fraction of Water =          54.1476          = 0.99619 = 0.9962 to 4 sig figs
    54.1476 + 0.2068

No, that is not the correct answer.

Question 4 of 5

The normality of Sodium Acid Phosphate BP (RMM 156.0) in solution is 0.2068 N. The density of the solution is 1.008 g/ml. What is the concentration of Sodium Acid Phosphate expressed as % w/w? Answer to 2 decimal places.

Type in your answer and PRESS ENTER.
% w/w
The concentration of Sodium Acid Phosphate is 3.20 % w/w.
  1. Find the mass of Sodium Acid Phosphate (SAP) in 1000 ml of solution.
    1000 ml of solution contains 0.2068 equivalents of Sodium Acid Phosphate.
    Mass of One Equivalent of SAP = RMM/Valency = 156.0/1 g = 156.0 g
    Mass of SAP = Number of SAP Eqs x Mass of SAP Eq = 0.2068 x 156.0 g = 32.2608 g
  2. Find the mass of 1000 ml of solution - use the given density of 1.008 g/ml.
    1 ml of solution has a mass of 1.008 g. Thus: 1000 ml has a mass of 1008 g.
  3. Find the mass of Sodium Acid Phosphate in 100 g of solution.
    1008 g of solution contains 32.2608 g of Sodium Acid Phosphate. Thus:
    100 g of solution contains 100/1008 x 32.2608 g = 3.200 g of Sodium Acid Phosphate.
The concentration of Sodium Acid Phosphate is 3.20 g/100 g ie 3.20 % w/w to 2 dec pl.

No, that is not the correct answer.

Question 5 of 5

The normality of a solution of Sodium Sulphate is 0.7340 N. What is the concentration - expressed as % w/v - of the solution? Answer to 2 decimal places.

Type in your answer and PRESS ENTER.
% w/w
The concentration of Sodium Sulphate is 5.22 % w/w.
  1. Find the mass of Sodium Sulphate in 1000 ml of solution.
    1000 ml of solution contains 0.7340 equivalents of Sodium Sulphate.
    Mass of One Equivalent of Sodium Sulphate = RMM/Valency = 142.1/2 g = 71.05 g
    Mass of Sodium Sulphate = Number of Equivalents x Mass of One Equivalent
    Mass of Sodium Sulphate = 0.7340 x 71.05 g = 52.1507 g
  2. Find the mass of Sodium Sulphate in 100 ml of solution.
    1000 ml of solution contains 52.1507 g of Sodium Sulphate. Thus:
    100 ml of solution contains 5.21507 g of Sodium Sulphate.
The concentration of Sodium Sulphate is 5.22 g/100 ml ie 5.22 % w/v to 2 dec pl.
