Answer:
23 grams Na
Step-by-step explanation:
- Molarity is the concentration of a solution in moles per liter.
- Therefore, a solution with a molarity of 3M contains 3 moles of solute in 1 liter of solution, while a solution with 2M contains 2 moles of solute in 1 liter of solution.
Thus, 3 M = 3 moles/liter
2 M = 2 moles /liter
The difference is 1 mole/Liter
But, 1 mole of sodium 23 g
Therefore;
Mass of sodium = moles × Atomic mass
= 1 mole × 23 g/mol
= 23 g
Therefore a 3 M solution contains 23 g of sodium more than a 2 M solution.
