Cocaine (C₁₇H₂₁O₄N) is a natural substance found in coca leaves, which have been used for centuries as a local anesthetic and stimulant. Illegal cocaine arrives in the United States either as the pure compound or as the hydrochloride salt (C₁₇H₂₁O₄NHCL). At 25°C, the salt is very soluble in water (2.50 kg/L), but cocaine is much less so (1.70 g/L).
(a) What is the maximum mass (g) of the salt that can dissolve in 50.0 mL of water?

Respuesta :

The saturation level is only nominally dependent on the temperature of the water. At 20 °C one liter of water can dissolve about 357 grams of salt, a concentration of 26.3% w/w. At boiling (100 °C) the amount that can be dissolved in one liter of water increases to about 391 grams, a concentration of 28.1% w/w.

How do you calculate the solubility of salt in water?

Divide the mass of the compound by the mass of the solvent and then multiply by 100 g to calculate the solubility in g/100g .

How do you calculate the concentration of salt in water?

Salt is the solute (the dissolving substance), and water is the solvent (the substance that dissolves another to create a solution). To make a salt solution by weight percent (w/v), you apply the formula w/v = (mass of solute ÷ volume of solution) × 100.
