Remember: this problem is based on the experiment we did in class. If you use the same data table to organize your measurements and calculations, you should have an easier time calculationg the solubility of this substance. Keep in mind that the solvent IS NOT WATER. You must calculate the VOLUME of the solvent using a density proportion. If you have trouble with this problem, don't worry, we will review it in class. Before pouring a saturated solution into an evaporating dish, the mass of that dish was found to be 34.150 grams. After the solution was poured in, the mass was found to be 42.125 grams. Once the liquid was completly evaporated, the mass of the dish (plus the solute) was found to be 37.089 grams. What is the solubility of the solute in this particular solvent (the density of the solvent is 0.5 g/cc)? |
