1.5 Calculate the mass of sodium acetate (CH3COONa) required to make 500 mL of 0.375 molar aqueous solution. Molar mass of sodium acetate is 82.0245 g mol –1.
molar aqueous solution would contain
moles of
dissolved in
of solvent.
So, we have to calculate for solution of
.
Therefore the number of moles of sodium acetate in will be:
Given Molar mass of sodium acetate:
So, the required mass of sodium acetate
