Question

which statement best explains the symbol nacl? moles of water per liter of nacl; moles of water per liter of solution; moles of nacl per liter of solution; moles of nacl per liter of water

Explanation:

In chemistry, the notation \([\text{NaCl}]\) represents the molarity of sodium chloride in a solution. Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute (here, \(\text{NaCl}\)) per liter of solution. The first two options are incorrect as they refer to moles of water, and the last option is incorrect because molarity is per liter of solution (not just per liter of water, as the solution includes both solute and solvent).

Answer:

C. moles of NaCl per liter of solution
