First, we need to determine the mass of the potassium nitrate dissolved in the water. The total mass of the potassium nitrate is given as 32 grams.
Next, we need to find the volume of the solution. The volume of the solution is given as 200 ml.
The concentration of the solution in terms of mass by volume is calculated by dividing the mass of the solute (potassium nitrate) by the volume of the solution and multiplying by 100.
Therefore, to find the concentration, we can use the formula:
Concentration (g/mL) = (Mass of solute (g) / Volume of solution (mL)) * 100
In this case, the concentration is:
Concentration (g/mL) = (32 g / 200 mL) * 100
Simplifying this equation, we have:
Concentration (g/mL) = 16 g/mL
So, the concentration of the solution in terms of mass by volume is 16 g/mL.
