Question

You discover a bottle of aqueous sodium chloride of unknown molarity. However, the bottle says that there are 0.75 moles of NaCl dissolved and the total volume of the solution is 500.0 ml. What is the molarity of this solution? Note which type of calculation you need to perform, and then perform the calculation.

Answer 1

Necessary calculation: a

0.75 moles/0.500 L = 1.5 M

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

To calculate the molarity you only need to know the number of moles in the solution and the volume of that solution. This exercise gives both and with that you divide moles by volume(usually in liters).

500 ml equals 0,5 L
molarity= number of moles/ volume
molarity=0,75 x 0,5
= 0,375 mol/L
