Question
![**Educational Content: Measuring Concentrations of Solutions**
In this exercise, we explore how to determine the concentration of a potassium chloride solution. The concentration is defined as the mass of the dissolved solute divided by the total volume of the solution. Below is a step-by-step guide provided by a chemistry student on how this solution was prepared and measured:
1. **Initial Measurements:**
- The empty graduated cylinder is labeled with an empty weight of **1.05 g**.
2. **Adding the Solute:**
- Solid potassium chloride is placed into the graduated cylinder.
- The weight of the cylinder with the potassium chloride is **84.7 g**.
3. **Creating the Solution:**
- Water is added to the cylinder to completely dissolve the potassium chloride.
- The total volume of the resulting solution is read from the graduated cylinder as **198.62 mL**.
4. **Calculating Concentration:**
- To find the concentration, the student calculates the difference in mass to find the mass of the potassium chloride:
\[
\text{Mass of potassium chloride} = 84.7 \, \text{g} - 1.05 \, \text{g}
\]
- The concentration is then determined by dividing this mass by the total volume of the solution:
\[
\text{Concentration (g/mL)} = \frac{\text{Mass of potassium chloride (g)}}{\text{Total volume (mL)}}
\]
**Considerations:**
- The final answer must reflect the appropriate number of significant digits based on the measurements provided.
This understanding helps in accurately recording and analyzing the concentration of solutions in laboratory settings.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F119fd9ee-0d86-405f-8fbb-1cd17cdf6dea%2F06a2bf5f-45da-461f-9b4d-7598655b545d%2Fuc6823_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
