Answer:
3.5 × 10⁵ g of salt
Explanation:
What is the mass (grams) of salt in 10.0 m³ of ocean water?
We have this data:
- 1.000 mol salt is equal to 58.44 g salt
- 1.0 L of ocean water contains 0.60 mol of salt
We will need the following relations:
We can use proportions:
[tex]10.0m^{3} .\frac{10^{3}dm^{3} }{1m^{3} } .\frac{1L}{1dm^{3} } .\frac{0.60molSalt}{1.0L} .\frac{58.44gSalt}{1molSalt} =3.5 \times 10^{5} gSalt[/tex]
