Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation
250cm3 of distilled water contains 14.8g of salt(z)
1cm3 of distilled water will contain \(\frac{14.8 x 1}{250}\) of salt (z)
:. 1000cm3 of distilled water will contain \(\frac{14.8 x 1 x 1000}{250}\) = 59.2g/dm33 = \(\frac{concentration in g/dm3}{molar mass}
0.80 = \(\frac{59.2}{molar mass}\)
molar mass = \(\frac{59.2}{0.80}\) = 74.0 g/mol
