Question

A 14 wt% solution of cacl2 (110.98 g/mol) has a density of 1.126 g/ml. what is the mass (in milligrams) of a 20.0-ml solution of 14.0 wt% cacl2?

Answer 1

Density = mass / volume

Thus, Mass of the solution can be expressed as:

Mass of solution = Density of solution × volume of solution

Given- Density of solution = 1.126 g/ml

volume of solution = 20.0 ml

∴ Mass of 14 wt% solution of CaCl2 = (1.126 g/ml) × (20 ml)

= 22.52 g

= 22520 mg
