Question

Find the following in 24% (w/v) of the solution if the density of the solution is $1.06gm{l}^{-1}$
(a) Weight of solute (b) Weight of solvent

Answer 1

$24\%$ (w/v) solution means

$24$ g of salute present in $100$ ml of point density of solution=$1.06$ g/ml.

mass of solution$=\left(density\right)\times \left(volumeosolution\right)$

$=1.06\frac{g}{ml}\times 100ml$

Weight of solution=$106g$

Weight of solute$=24g$

Weight of solvent$=(106-24)g$

$=82g$
