Q: A solution is prepared by dissolving 10 grams of NaCl in enough water to make 1 liter of solution. What is the molarity (M) of NaCl in the solution? (Molecular weight of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol)

$$M = \frac{10}{58.44} = 0.171\ \text{mol/L}$$

Q: A patient is given a solution containing 180 mg/dL of glucose. What is the concentration in g/L?

$$180\ \text{mg/dL} \times 10 = 1800\ \text{mg/L} = 1.8\ \text{g/L}$$

Q: Which of the following is true regarding Avogadro's number?

It is $$6.02 \times 10$$^{23}$$, representing the number of molecules in one mole of a substance.

$$M = \frac{10}{58.44} = 0.171\ 	ext{mol/L}$$

Question 4

Which statement about isotopes is correct?

Accepted Answer

Isotopes have the same number of protons but differ in the number of neutrons.

Question 5

Which type of chemical bond involves the sharing of two pairs of electrons between two atoms?

Accepted Answer

Double covalent bond

Question 6

A patient is given a solution containing 180 mg/dL of glucose. What is the concentration in g/L?

Accepted Answer
