Question

A solution was made by adding 13.643 g of NaCl into 4.073*10⁵ g of H₂O. Calculate the concentration of NaCl in parts per million, ppm?

Expert Solution

Step 1

When the small amount of solute is present in a large amount of solution, the concentration of solute can be represented as ppm i.e. parts per million. It is the mass of solute present in one million $(10^{6})$ by mass of the solution.

The given problem can be solved by using the formula given below as;

$ppm = \frac{mass of solute}{mass of solution} \times 10^{6}$ ......(1)
