A solution is prepared by dissolving 33.0 milligrams of sodium chloride in 1000. L of water. Assume a final volume of 1000. liters. Calculate the following values listed below. a. Molarity of NaCl
b. Molarity of sodium ions
c. Molarity of chloride ions
d. Osmolarity of the solution
e. Mass percent of NaCl
f. Parts per million of sodium chloride
g. Parts per billion of sodium chloride
h. Look at your answers to parts e, f, and g.
Which one of these values is the most convenient or easiest to say and use/understand when discussing concentration.

a. Molarity of NaCl solution = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

b. molarity of Na⁺ = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

c. molarity of Cl⁻ = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

d. Osmolarity = 1.128 osmol

e. mass percent of NaCl = 3.30 * 10⁻⁶ %

f. parts per million NaCl = 0.033 ppm NaCl

g. parts per billion of NaCl = 33 ppb of NaCl

h. From the values obtained from e, f and g, the most convenient to use and understand is parts per billion as it has less of a fractional part to deal with especially since the solute concentration is very small.

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution = number of moles of solute (moles)/volume of solution (L)

where number of moles of solute = mass of solute (g)/molar mass of solute (g/mol)

a. Molarity of NaCl:

molar mass of NaCl = 58.5 g/mol, mass of NaCl = 33.0/1000) g = 0.033g

number of moles of NaCl = 0.033/58.5 = 0.000564 moles

Molarity of NaCl solution = 0.000564/1000 = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

b. Equation for the dissociation of NaCl in solution: NaCl > Na⁺ + Cl⁻

From the above equation I mole of NaCl dissociates to give 1 mole of Na⁺ ions,

Therefore molarity of Na⁺ = 1 * 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

c. From the above equation I mole of NaCl dissociates to give 1 mole of Cl⁻ ions,

therefore molarity of Cl⁻ = 1 * 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

d. From the above equation, dissociation of NaCl in water produces 1 mol Na⁺ and 1 mole Cl⁻.

Total number of particles produced = 2

Osmolarity of solution = number of particles * molarity of siolution

Osmolarity = 2 * 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L = 1.128 osmol

e. mass of percent of NaCl = {mass of NaCl (g)/ mass of solution (g)} * 100

density of water = 1 Kg/L

mass of water = 1 Kg/L * 1000 L = 1000 kg

1Kg = 1000 g

Therefore mass of solution in g = 1000 * 1000 = 1 * 10⁶ g

mass percent of NaCl = (0.033/1 * 10⁶) * 100 = 3.30 * 10⁻⁶ %

f. Parts per million of NaCl:

parts per million = 1 mg of solute/L of solution

One thousandth of a gram is one milligram and 1000 ml is one liter, so that 1 ppm = 1 mg per liter = mg/Liter.

Since the density of water is 1kg/L = 1,000,000 mg/L

1mg/L = 1mg/1,000,000mg or one part in one million.

parts per million NaCl = 33.0/1000 L = 0.033 ppm NaCl

g. Parts per billion = 1 µg/L of solution

1 g = 1000 µg

therefore, 33.0 mg = 33.0 * 1000 µg = 3.30 * 10⁴ µg

parts per billion of NaCl = 3.30 * 10⁴ µg/1000 L = 33 ppb of NaCl

h. From the values obtained from e, f and g, the most convenient to use and understand is parts per billion as it has less of a fractional part to deal with especially since the solute concentration is very small.

answer; /// i do believe that the correct answer is (a) boiling

in 1783 cavendish was working with his hydrogen gas and found that when he burned it and condensed the vapor it was water. this was very significant since it disproved the greek theory of elements completely since water was not a simple substance but the product of two gases. it was lavoisier who hearing of the experiment gave cavendish's gas the name hydrogen ("water-producer") and added that hydrogen burned by combining with oxygen and that water was a hydrogen-oxygen combination.
