How to Find the Mass of a Solution with Given Density?

[Complexity]

Homework Statement

A solution is prepared by adding enough water to 185 grams of CsCl to form 1 liter of solution. What is the mass of the solution? The density of the solution is 1.182 g/mL.

Homework Equations

D= m/v

The Attempt at a Solution

D= 1.182 g/mL ----> 185 g CsCl / 1.182 g/ml = 156.5143824mL * 1L /1000L = 0.157L

but how do i find the mass? I am confused...? Isn't the mass of the solution just 185 grams?

 

[Bohrok]

If the density of the solution is 1.182 g/mL, how many grams of solution are in 1 liter of solution?

 

[Complexity]

If the density of the solution is 1.182 g/mL, how many grams of solution are in 1 liter of solution?

So you're saying if (1.182 g/mL)(1000ml/1L) = 1182 grams are in 1 liter of solution?

 

[Borek]

So you're saying if (1.182 g/mL)(1000ml/1L) = 1182 grams are in 1 liter of solution?

Actually that's what you said, Bohrok only asked But that's the correct answer.
