Commercial products commonly report concentration in terms of "percentage." Using this
technique, a 1% solution is considered to have 1 gram of solute for 100 milliliters of solution, and a
2% solution is considered to have 2 grams of solute for 100 milliliters of solution, and so on.
Clorox bleach claims to be 6.00% NaCIO. What is the molarity of NaCIO in Clorox bleach? Do not
type units into your answer.


Sagot :

The answer to the question is 0.8055 as the answer should not include units in it.

Molarity (M) = n/v

n = moles of solute

v = liters of solution

According to question

1% solution → 1 gram of solute for 100 milliliters of solution

2% solution → 2 grams of solute for 100 milliliters of solution

6% NaClO solution → 6 grams of NaClO (solute) for 100 milliliters of solution

Molar mass of NaClO = (22.98 + 35.5 + 16)g/mol = 74.48 g/mol

Atomic mass of Na = 22.98 g/mol

Atomic mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol

Atomic mass of O = 16 g/mol

1 mol NaClO = 74.48 grams NaClO

74.48 grams NaClO = 1 mol NaClO

6 grams NaClO = (1×6) / 74.48 mole = 0.08055 mole

As unit molarity is mole / liter

So 100 milliliters = 0.1 liters

1 liter = 1000 milliliters

100 milliliters = 100/1000 liters = 0.1 liters

Molarity of NaClO = moles of solute (NaClO) / liters of solution or volume of solution

Molarity of NaClO = 0.08055 / 0.1 mole/L =  0.8055 mole/L

As in question it is mentioned that 'Do not type units into your answer'

So, Molarity of NaClO in clorox bleach = 0.8055

Thus we find out the value of molarity of NaClO in Clorox bleach which came out to be 0.8055 as we dont have to give the answer with units.
