Answer:

Molarity = 0.1678 M

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Volume = 4.00 L

Mass of KCl = 50.0 g

Molarity = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in L

Number of moles = mass/ Molar mass

Number of moles = 50.0 g/ 74.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.8 mol

Molarity = 0.8 mol / 4.00 L

Molarity = 0.1678 M
