Type the correct answer in the box. sodium carbonate (na2co3) is sometimes used as a water-softening agent. suppose that a worker prepares a 0.724 m solution of na2co3 and water. the volume of the solution is 1.421 liters. what is the mass of solute in the solution? express your answer to three significant figures. the mass of dissolved sodium carbonate is grams.

Respuesta :

The mass of dissolved sodium carbonate is 109 g of Na₂CO₃.

What is a solution ?

A solution consists of two elements , a solute and a solvent .

A solute is dissolved into solvent to make a solution.

The concentration of a solution is measure by Molarity , Molality , mass% etc.

It is given in the question that

sodium carbonate ( Na₂CO₃) is sometimes used as a water-softening agent

a worker prepares a 0.724 m solution of  Na₂CO₃ and water.

the volume of the solution is 1.421 liters.

Mass of dissolved sodium carbonate is grams =?

Concentration = 0.724 M

Volume = 1.421 liters

Molecular mass of  Na₂CO₃  = 106 g

The mass of the solute needs to be determined

Molarity = moles / volume\

moles = Molarity x volume

Substituting the values

moles = 0.724 x 1.421

moles = 1.029

1 mol of Na₂CO₃ means  106 gm of  Na₂CO₃

Then 1.029 moles will mean 1.029 * 106

109.07 gm

Therefore , the mass of dissolved sodium carbonate is 109 grams.
