1. Calculate the moles of NaCl:
* Molar mass of NaCl: 58.44 g/mol (approximately)
* Moles of NaCl: (526 g) / (58.44 g/mol) = 9.00 mol (approximately)
2. Calculate the volume of the solution:
* Molarity (M): 3.0 mol/L
* Volume (L): (9.00 mol) / (3.0 mol/L) = 3.0 L
Therefore, the volume of the 3.0 M NaCl solution made with 526 g of solute is approximately 3.0 liters.
