Mass Mixture Molality Solvent Volume

AI Thread Summary

To calculate the amount of NaCl in a 500ml saline solution, the density of the solution must be known, as the relationship between volume (ml) and mass (grams) requires this information. Given the ratio of 10 grams of NaCl to 100 grams of water, the total mass of the solution can be determined if the density is provided. Once the total mass is known, the mass of NaCl can be calculated using the defined ratio. Without the density, the calculation cannot be accurately completed. Understanding the relationship between volume, mass, and concentration is crucial for such calculations.

Say for example you have take a sample of 500ml from a bulk saline solution (NaCl and H20). If you know that for every 100 grams of water there is 10 grams of NaCl, can you calculate the amount of NaCl in 500ml of the final mixture?

I think you'd need to know the densities since ml is volume and grams is mass

Thread 'Need help understanding particle physics and quantum physics'

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks

Thread 'Fundamental Probability'

If the universe is fundamentally probabilistic, and all possible outcomes are realized in some branch of the multiverse, does that invalidate the concept of scientific inquiry? If knowledge is merely a description of one particular branch of reality, does it have any inherent value?
