Answer: The correct answer is option (C).

Explanation:

Mass of the solution = 205 g

Mass by mass percentage of the solution = 92.5 %

[tex]m/m\%=\frac{\text{Mass of the Sodium Chloride}}{\text{Mass of the solution}}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]92.5\%=\frac{\text{Mass of the sodium chloride}}{205 g}\times 100[/tex]

Mass of the sodium chloride :

[tex]=92.5\times \frac{205 g}{100}=189.625 g[/tex]

Moles of the Sodium chloride:

[tex]\frac{\text{Mass of the sodium chloride}}{\text{Molar mass of the sodiu chloride}}=\frac{189.625 g}{58.44 g/mol}=3.24 mol[/tex]

Hence,the correct answer is option (C).

How many moles of sodium chloride (NaCl) solute are in 205 grams of a 92.5 percent by mass solution? A.) 1.92 mol NaCl B.) 2.63 mol NaCl C.) 3.24 mol NaCl D.) 7.71 mol NaCl
