Step 1: Calculate the moles of silver nitrate in 24.1 cm³ of solution.
The volume of silver nitrate solution is 24.1 cm³, which is 0.0241 dm30.0241 \text{ dm}^3. The concentration is 0.1 mol dm−30.1 \text{ mol dm}^{-3}.

Moles of AgNO3=Concentration×Volume\text{Moles of AgNO}_3 = \text{Concentration} \times \text{Volume} Moles of AgNO3=0.1 mol dm−3×0.0241 dm3\text{Moles of AgNO}_3 = 0.1 \text{ mol dm}^{-3} \times 0.0241 \text{ dm}^3 Moles of AgNO3=0.00241 mol\text{Moles of AgNO}_3 = 0.00241 \text{ mol}

The moles of silver nitrate in 24.1 cm³ of solution is 0.00241 mol\boxed{\text{0.00241 mol}}.

Step 2: Calculate the moles of sodium chloride in 25.0 cm³ of solution.
The reaction between silver nitrate and sodium chloride is:

AgNO3(aq)+NaCl(aq)→AgCl(s)+NaNO3(aq)\text{AgNO}_3\text{(aq)} + \text{NaCl(aq)} \rightarrow \text{AgCl(s)} + \text{NaNO}_3\text{(aq)}

From the balanced equation, the mole ratio of AgNO3\text{AgNO}_3 to NaCl\text{NaCl} is 1:1.
Therefore, the moles of NaCl\text{NaCl} that reacted with 0.00241 mol0.00241 \text{ mol} of AgNO3\text{AgNO}_3 is also 0.00241 mol0.00241 \text{ mol}.

Moles of NaCl in 25.0 cm3=Moles of AgNO3\text{Moles of NaCl in 25.0 cm}^3 = \text{Moles of AgNO}_3 Moles of NaCl in 25.0 cm3=0.00241 mol\text{Moles of NaCl in 25.0 cm}^3 = 0.00241 \text{ mol}

The moles of sodium chloride in 25.0 cm³ of solution is 0.00241 mol\boxed{\text{0.00241 mol}}.

Step 3: Calculate the moles of sodium chloride in 250 cm³ of solution.
The 25.0 cm³ sample of sodium chloride solution was taken from a total volume of 250 cm³ of the dilute solution.
To find the total moles in 250 cm³, we scale up the moles from the 25.0 cm³ sample:
