Answer :
The number of the grains of salt that would be in the total mass of the sand is determined as 1.67 x 10⁶ gains.
What is the number of grains of salt?
The number of grains of salt is calculated by dividing the total mass of the sand by the mass of a single grain of salt.
Mathematically, the formula for the number of grains of salt is given as ;
1 grain of salt ----------> 0.06 mg
? grain of salt ------------> 100 g
For the mass of a grain of salt is around 0.06 mg, the number of grains that will be found in 100 grams of sand is calculated as follows;
number of grains of salt = ( mass of the sand ) / ( mass of a single grain of salt )
number of grains of salt = ( 100 g ) / ( 0.06 x 10⁻³ g )
number of grains of salt = 1.67 x 10⁶ gains
Thus, the number of the grains of salt found in the mass of the sand is a function of total mass of the sand and the mass of a single grain of salt.
