Question

Determine the concentration of a solution (ppb) where 2.76 mg of solute (80.54 g/mol) is dissolved in 13.6 L of solvent (0.749 g/mL)? Report your answer to the tenths place 

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given : Mass of solute = 2.76 mg = 2.76 X 10-3 g                                         (since 1 g = 1000 mg)

Molar mass of solute = 80.54 g/mol.

Density of solvent = 0.749 g/mL.

And volume of solvent = 13.6 L = 13600 mL                                                   (since 1 L = 1000 mL)
