Question

What is the relationship between salt concentration and density?
Please help

Answer 1

The definition of density is \(\sf density=\dfrac{mass}{volume}\)

so if you add 10 g of salt to 1 L of water you have

\(d=\dfrac{10~g}{1000~mL}=0.01~g/mL\)

so if you add 100 g of salt to 1 L of water you have

\(d=\dfrac{100~g}{1000~mL}=0.1~g/mL\)

so if you add 100 g of salt to 1 L of water you have

\(d=\dfrac{1000~g}{1000~mL}=1~g/mL\)

Do you see the trend?
