Which is more concentrated a solution containing 5 grams of salt in 10 grams of water or a solution containing 18 grams of salt in 90 grams of water?

Answer 1

* 50 g salt/100 g water is a more concentrated but a saturated sodium chloride solution (the solubility of NaCl at 20 0C is approx. 36 g/100 mL).

* 18 g salt/90 g water is a 20 % sodium chloride solution.

Answer 2

* 50 g salt/100 g water is a more concentrated but a saturated sodium chloride solution (the solubility of NaCl at 20 0C is approx. 36 g/100 mL).

* 18 g salt/90 g water is a 20 % sodium chloride solution.
The first solution is more concentrated.

Answer 3

The solution containing 18 grams of salt in 90 grams of water is more concentrated because it has a higher salt-to-water ratio compared to the solution containing 5 grams of salt in 10 grams of water. A higher concentration means more solute (salt) is dissolved in the solvent (water) per unit volume.

Answer 4

18 grains in 6 L. (solution A)would be similar to 36 g in 12 L. (X2) Therefore, 24g in 12 L. (solution B) would be less concentrated. Solution A is more concentrated.

Answer 5

18g of salt in 6L of water is more concentrated since the ratio of salt to water here is 3;1 as opposed to 24g of salt in 12L of water whose salt- water ratio is 2;1

Answer 6

The solution containing 5 g NaCl in 10 g water is more concentrated.

Answer 7

The solution containing 5 g of salt in 10 g of water is more concentrated.

Answer 8

5 g/10 g = 0.5 g/g for solution 118 g/90 g = 0.2 g/g for solution 2

Since 0.5 is greater than 0.2, the first solution (5 g/10 g) is more concentrated.

Answer 9

The first solution is more concentrated.
