Determine the mass of potassium hydroxide in a 0.5 L solution with a mass fraction of potassium

Determine the mass of potassium hydroxide in a 0.5 L solution with a mass fraction of potassium hydroxide of 10%. The density of the solution is 1.092 g / cm3

1. Let’s calculate the mass of the solution, knowing its volume and density:

m (solution) = ρ * V (solution);

m (solution) = 1.092 * 500 = 546 g;

2.determine the mass of potassium hydroxide in solution:

m (KOH) = w (KOH) * m (solution);

m (KOH) = 0.1 * 546 = 54.6 g.

Answer: 54.6 g.
