Saline solution is often used in hospitals and by optometrists. It is a 0.92% (m/v) aqueous solution of sodium chloride. How many grams of NaCl would be found in 1.59 liters of saline solution

Saline solution used in hospital contains $0.9 \%$ sodium chloride by mass. Calculate the number of grams of sodium chloride in 0.5 gal of saline solution if the solution has a density of $1.01 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mL}$
Physiological saline concentration—that is, the sodium chloride concentration in our bodies—is approximately 0.16 M. A saline solution for contact lenses is prepared to match the physiological concentration. If you purchase 25 mL of contact lens saline solution, how many grams of sodium chloride have you bought?
