You are given a 0.265 wt% stock solution of Disopyramide in a forensic solvent (mixture of water & methanol containing acetic acid & triethyamine). The density of the solution is 0.958 g/mL. What is the concentration of disopyramide in this stock solution in μg/μL? (μL refers to the whole solution, not only the solvent) State your answer using the correct number of significant figures.
find concentratino of disopyramide
assume a basis of 1 liter so
1 L = 1000 mL
mass of solution = 0.958 g/mL * 1000 mL = 958 g
mass of disopyramide = 0.265 /100 * 958 = 2.5387 g of disopyramide
now,
micrograms =2.5387 g of disopyramide = 2.5387 *10^6 micro grams
V = 1 L = 10^6 microliters
concentration in microgram/microL = (2.5387 *10^6) / (10^6 ) = 2.5387 microgram/microliter
correct sig fig --> must be 3, so 2.5387 --> 2.54 microgram/microliter
