Expert Solution
Step 1: Mass of NaCl present

Molality of NaCl solution = 4.9 m

Mass of the solution = 38 grams

Mass of water added = 768 grams

Mass of NaCl present in the 4.9 m solution is :

Molality of a solution is the number of moles of solute present in 1 kg of solvent.

4.9 m NaCl solution is 4.9 moles of NaCl present in 1000 grams of water.

Mass of NaCl present is given by:

Molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 grams

              Molality =Number of moles of soluteMass of solvent in kgMolality =Mass of NaClMolar mass of NaCl×1000Mass in gramsMass of NaCl=Molality×Molar mass of NaCl×Mass of solution in grams1000Mass of NaCl=4.9 m×58.44 grams×38 grams1000Mass of NaCl=10.88 grams

So, 38 grams of 4.9 m NaCl solution will contain 10.88 grams of NaCl.

 

Now, 768 grams of water is added to 38 grams of 4.9 m NaCl solution.

So, now the total mass is 38 grams + 768 grams = 806 grams
