Well, one gets three ions of sodium per molecule, so you want a Molarity of the salt of 1.40*3M
Molarity=moles solute/volume
= gramssolute/(molmass*volume)
solve for grams of solute you need use, then make up the volume desired with water.

Oppps. One wants TSP to be 1/3 the concnetration, not three times. ARRRGGGHHH.
Molarity= 1/3 * 1.40 M for the sodium triphosphate.
Molarity= 1/3 * 1.40 M for the sodium triphosphate.
