Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mass percent concentration of a saline solution prepared by dissolving $1.00\text{ mole}$ of $\text{NaCl}$ in $\text{1}\text{.00 L}$ of water should be identified.

Concept introduction:

To calculate the mass of solute, use the following expression:
