Answer:
0.077 M
Step-by-step explanation:
Molarity is the representation of the solution.
Molarity:
It is amount of solute in moles per liter of solution and represented by M
Formula used for Molarity
M = moles of solute / Liter of solution . . . . . . . . . . (1)
Data Given :
The concentration of half normal (NaCl) saline = 0.45g / 100 g
So,
Volume of Solution = 100 g = 100 mL
Volume of Solution in L = 100 mL / 1000
Volume of Solution = 0.1 L
molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol
Now to find number of moles of Nacl
no. of moles of NaCl = mass of NaCl / molar mass
no. of moles of NaCl = 0.45g / 58.44 g/mol
no. of moles of NaCl = 0.0077 g
Put values in the eq (1)
M = moles of solute / Liter of solution . . . . . . . . . . (1)
M = 0.0077 g / 0.1 L
M = 0.077 M
So the molarity of half-normal saline solution (0.45% NaCl) = 0.077 M
