You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Molality means moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
\n" ); document.write( "Formula weight of CaF2 is 78.07 grams per mole.
\n" ); document.write( "Solubility of CaF2 at 20C is 0.0016 grams per 100 ml of solution.
\n" ); document.write( "This solubility is close to 0.0002 moles per kilogram water.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%289.2%2AgramsCaF2%29%2A%281%2Amole%2F%2878.07%2AgramsCaF2%29%29%2F%280.45%2Akg%2Awater%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%289.2%2F78.07%29%281%2F0.45%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight_green%280.26%29\" moles CaF2 per kilogram water. This must certainly be wrong because the data in the question is faulty. You cannot have 0.26 m CaF2 if the solubility can only be 0.0002 m.
