1.
Percent (mass/volume) of the solution = (mass of the solute / volume of the solution) x 100
Given, percent of NaCl (m/v) solution = 2.0 %
Volume of solution = 100 ml
Plugging in the numbers in the formula we get,
2.0 = (mass of NaCl/ 100) x 100
Mass of NaCl = (2.0 x 100)/100 = 2 g
So we would dissolve 2g NaCl(s) in 100 ml water to form a 2.0% NaCl solution.
2.
Percent (mass/volume) of the solution = (mass of the solute / volume of the solution) x 100
Given, percent of MgSOâ‚„ (m/v) solution = 1.6%
Volume of solution = 250 ml
Plugging in the numbers in the formula we get,
1.6 = (mass of MgSOâ‚„/ 250) x 100
Mass of MgSOâ‚„ = (1.6 x 250)/100 = 4 g
3.
Percent (mass/volume) of the solution = (mass of the solute / volume of the solution) x 100
Given, mass of CuSOâ‚„ = 2.7 g
Volume of solution = 75 ml
Percent (mass/volume) of the solution = (2.7 g/ 75 ml) x 100 = 3.6%
