Nalorphene (C19H21NO3), similar to morphine, is used to combat withdrawal symptoms in narcotic users. Dose of nalorphene generally given is 1.5 mg. Calculate the mass of 1.5 x 10-3m aqueous solution required for the above dose.
Molecular mass of nalorphene (C19H21NO3),
= 19 x 12 + 21 x 1 + 1 x 14 + 3 x 16 = 311 g/mol
Moles of nalorphene (C19H21NO3) = 1.5 x 10-3 x 311 = 4.67 x 10-6 mol
Now molality = (moles of solute / mass of solvent in g) x 1000
Putting the values in above equation,we get
1.5 x 10-3 = (4.67 x 10-6 / mass of water) x 1000
Or
Mass of water = (4.67 x 10-6 x 1000) / 1.5 x 10-3
Therefore mass of water = 3.1g
