Consider a saturated solution formed when 17.5 g of a solute dissolve in 28.3 g of a solvent, giving a total solution volume of 27.8 mL. a. Express the solution concentration as a mass percent.
b. Express the solubility as grams of solute per 100 g of solvent.
c. Calculate the solution density in g/mL.

a) 38.2 % mass

b) 61.8 g solute/100 g solvent

c) 1.65 g/mL

Explanation:

Given the data:

mass of solute = 17.5 g

mass of solvent= 28.3 g

total solution volume= 27.8 mL

a)- mass percent= mass of solute/mass of solution x 100

mass of solution = mass solute + mass solvent = 17.5 g + 28.3 g = 45.8 g

mass % = 17.5 g/45.8 g x 100 = 38.2 % mass

b)- solubility = grams of solute/ 100 g solvent

                    = 17.5 g x (100 g /28.3 g solvent) = 61.8 g solute/100 g solvent  

c)- density = massof solution/total volumesolution  = 45.8 g/27.8 mL = 1.65 g/mL

periodic trends is an atom that gets larger as the number of electronic shells increase, the radius of atoms increases as you go down a certain group in the periodic table of elements. in general, the size of an atom will decrease as you move from left to right of a certain period.
