Topic 1: Concentrations

BLB Ch. 13: 11, 12, 15, 16

The common insecticide malathion has the molecular formula C₁₀H₁₉O₆PS₂. A 750. mL container of malathion is 50.0% by mass malathion and 50.0% "inert" ingredients (essentially water). (a) If the density of the solution is 1.14 g/mL, what is the molarity of malathion in this solution? (b) When dispensed with a hose-end sprayer, this solution is diluted by a factor of 10⁴. If 1.00 L of this diluted solution is sprayed onto an apple tree, how many moles of malathion were applied?

The label on Evian bottled water lists a magnesium concentration of 24 mg/L. What is the concentration in ppm? (Assume a density of 1.00 g/mL). What is the molarity of magnesium? [The magnesium is in solution as Mg⁺⁺, of course, not magnesium metal.]
