Question

What is the molarity of a solution that contains 12 moles of cacl2 in 3 liters of solution?

Answer 1

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved in a volume of 1 L.
the number of moles of CaCl₂ present - 12 mol
Volume of solution - 3 L
Therefore if 3 L contains 12 mol of CaCl₂
then 1 L of CaCl₂ contains -
`(12 mol)/(3 L)` = 4 mol/L
Therefore molarity of CaCl₂ is 4 M
