Interpretation:
The mass percent of nitric acid
Concept introduction:
Mass percent of any species in the solution can be calculated from its mass and mass of the solution. For example, if mass of the species is x and that of solution is y, the mass percent of the solution can be calculated as follows:
The molarity of solution is defined as number of moles of solute in 1 L of the solution.
The density of the solution is related to mass and volume of solution as follows:
The number of moles of substance can be calculated from mass and molar mass as follows:
Here, m is mass and M is molar mass.

- Fluoridation of city water supplies has been practiced in the United States for several decades. It is done by continuously adding sodium fluoride to water as it comes from a reservoir. Assume you live in a medium-sized city of 150,000 people and that 660 L (170 gal) of water is used per person per day. What mass of sodium fluoride (in kilograms) must be added to the water supply each year (365 days) to have the required fluoride concentration of 1 ppm (part per million)that is, 1 kilogram of fluoride per 1 million kilograms of water?
