A chemist prepares a solution of barium acetate BaCH3CO22 by weighing out 52.9g of barium acetate into a 100.mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water. Calculate the concentration in /gL of the chemist's barium acetate solution. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

Answer:

529g/L

Explanation:

The concentration in chemistry is defined as the amount of solute in a determined amount of solution. The concentration in g/L means the amount of grams of solute (In this case, barium acetate), per liter of solution.

To solve this problem we need to find grams of solute (52.9g, already given) and the volume in liters (Converting 100mL to liters):

Volume:

100mL * (1L / 1000mL) = 0.100L

And concentration in g/L is:

52.9g / 0.100L =

529g/L
