How much mass of sodium chloride ( ) should be dissolved in water to make 1.5 L of 0.75 M aqueous solution? The molar mass of is 58.5 g.

Mass = 65.8 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium chloride = ?

Volume of solution = 1.5 L

Molarity of solution = 0.75 M

Solution:

Number of moles of sodium chloride:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in L

By putting values,

0.75 M = number of moles = 1.5 L

Number of moles = 0.75 M × 1.5 L

Number of moles = 1.125 mol

Mass of sodium chloride:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 1.125 mol × 58.5 g/mol

Mass = 65.8 g
