Problem:: Mass of Solute Mass of Solution X 100

This document contains chemistry problems involving calculating: [1] The percentage by mass of sodium bromide (NaBr) in an aqueous solution given the mass of NaBr and total mass of the solution. [2] The percentage by volume, percentage by mass, and percentage (mass/volume) of ethanol (CH3CH2CH2OH) in an aqueous solution given the volume and density of ethanol and the total volume and density of the solution. [3] The volume of a brine solution with a given percentage of sodium chloride (NaCl) by mass that must be evaporated to obtain a specified mass of NaCl, given the mass and volume of a sample of the brine solution

Course&Block:
Problem:
4. A saturated aqueous solution of NaBr at 20°C contains 116 g NaBr/100 g H2O.
Express this composition in the more conventional percent by mass, that is, as grams of
NaBr per 100 grams of solution.

Given:
Mass of solute: 116 g NaBr
Mass of solution: 216 g of solution

Formula:
mass of solute
% mass= x 100
mass of solution

Solution:
116 g NaBr
% mass= x 100
116 g NaBr+100 g H 2 O
116 g NaBr
% mass= x 100
216 g of solution

% NaBr = 53.7 g NaBr/100 g solution

5. An aqueous solution with density 0.988 g/mL at 20∘C is prepared by dissolving 12.8
mL CH3CH2CH2OH (d=0.803 g/mL) in enough water to produce 75.0 mL of solution.
What is the percent CH3CH2CH2OH expressed as (a) percent by volume; (b) percent by
mass; (c) percent (mass/volume)?

a. percent volume:

Given:
Volume of solute: 12.8 ml CH3CH2CH2OH
Volume of solution: 75 ml

Formula:
vol of solute
% volume= x 100
vol of solution

Solution:
12.8 ml
% volume= x 100
75 ml
% volume=17.1 %

b. percent by mass

Given:
Mass of solute:
Mass of solute = 12.8 mL × 0.083 g/ml
= 10.27 g
Mass of solution:
Mass of Solution = 75 ml × 0.988 g/ml
= 74.1 g

Formula:
10.27 g
% mass= x 100
74.1 g
% mass=13.8 %

mass
c. percent
volume

Given:
Mass of solute: 10. 27 g
Volume of solution: 75 ml

Formula:
mass mass of solute
% = x 100
volume volume of solution

Solution:
mass 10.27 g
% = x 100
volume 75 ml

mass
% =¿ 13.7%
volume

6. A certain brine has 3.87% NaCl by mass. A 75.0 mL sample weighs 76.9 g. How
many liters of this solution should be evaporated to dryness to obtain 725 kg NaCl?

Given:

% mass = 3.87%NaCl
Volume = 75.0mL
Mass = 76.9g
Formula:
m
Density=
v
Solution:
m 76.9 g
Density= = =1.025 g /mL
v 75.0 mL

1L 100 kg Brine
725 kg NaCl( )( ) = 18,270.99 L of Brine to obtain 725 kg
1.025 kg Brine 3.87 kg NaCl
NaCl
