Problema 84

Capitolo 1, Problema 84

Saline solution used in hospital contains 0.9% sodium chloride by mass. Calculate the number of grams of sodium chloride in 0.5 gal of saline solution if the solution has a density of 1.01 g/mL.

Guida verificata passo dopo passo

Convert the volume of the saline solution from gallons to milliliters. Recall that 1 gallon is approximately 3.785 liters, and 1 liter is 1000 milliliters.

Calculate the total mass of the saline solution using its density. Multiply the volume in milliliters by the density in g/mL to find the mass in grams.

Determine the mass of sodium chloride in the solution by using the percentage concentration. Since the solution contains 0.9% sodium chloride by mass, multiply the total mass of the solution by 0.9%.

Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100 before multiplying to find the mass of sodium chloride.

The result from the previous step gives you the mass of sodium chloride in grams contained in 0.5 gallons of the saline solution.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Concentration by Mass

Concentration by mass refers to the amount of solute present in a given mass of solution, expressed as a percentage. In this case, a 0.9% sodium chloride solution means that there are 0.9 grams of sodium chloride in every 100 grams of the solution. Understanding this concept is crucial for calculating the mass of sodium chloride in a specific volume of saline solution.

Atomic Mass

Density

Density is defined as mass per unit volume and is a critical property for converting between volume and mass. The density of the saline solution is given as 1.01 g/mL, which means that each milliliter of the solution weighs 1.01 grams. This information allows us to determine the total mass of the saline solution when we know its volume, which is essential for calculating the mass of sodium chloride.

Density Concepts

Volume to Mass Conversion

To find the mass of sodium chloride in a given volume of solution, we first convert the volume to mass using the solution's density. For example, 0.5 gallons must be converted to milliliters (1 gallon = 3785.41 mL), and then multiplied by the density to find the total mass of the solution. This mass can then be used with the concentration percentage to find the mass of sodium chloride present.

Domanda del libro di testo

The total rate at which power is used by humans worldwide is approximately 15 TW (terawatts). The solar flux averaged over the sunlit half of Earth is 680 W>m2 (assuming no clouds). The area of Earth's disc as seen from the Sun is 1.28 * 1014 m2. The surface area of Earth is approximately 197,000,000 square miles. How much of Earth's surface would we need to cover with solar energy collectors to power the planet for use by all humans? Assume that the solar energy collectors can convert only 10% of the available sunlight into useful power
