7. You are about to perform some intricate electrical studies on single skeletal muscle fibers from a gastronemius muscle. But first, you must prepare 6L of a 170 mM NaCl solution in which to bath the isolated muscle during your studies. How many grams of NaCl must you weigh out on the lab balance to prepare this bath solution

Respuesta :

Answer:

58.61 grams

Explanation:

Taking The molecular weight of NaCl = 58.44 grams/mole

Determine how many grams of NaCl to prepare the bath solution

first we will calculate the moles of NaCl that is contained in 6L of 170 mM of NaCI solution

= ( 6 * 170 ) / 1000

= 1020 / 1000 = 1.020 moles

next

determine how many grams of NaCl

= moles of NaCl * molar mass of NaCl

= 1.020 * 58.44

= 58.61 grams
