**Explanation:**
In this section, students are learning how to determine the mass of sodium chloride (NaCl) required to prepare a specific concentration of a solution. The question presented asks what mass of NaCl is needed to prepare 2,500 grams of a 1.5% (m/m) NaCl solution.

To solve this, we use the formula:
\[ \text{Mass of solute} = \left( \frac{\text{Percentage}}{100} \right) \times \text{Total mass of solution} \]

For this specific problem:
\[ \text{Mass of NaCl} = \left( \frac{1.5}{100} \right) \times 2500 \, \text{g} \]
\[ \text{Mass of NaCl} = 0.015 \times 2500 \, \text{g} \]
\[ \text{Mass of NaCl} = 37.5 \, \text{g} \]

Therefore, the correct answer is approximately 38 g NaCl.

This type of problem helps students understand practical applications of percentage solutions in chemistry.

**Note:** 
Further information for the follow-up question is needed to provide a comprehensive explanation.
