In order to solve this question, we will use the Molarity formula, which is:

M = n/V

Where:

M = molarity

n = number of moles

V = volume in liters

We don't have the number of moles, but we have the formula for molarity to help us find it, now we add the values into the formula:

3.50 = n/1.00

n = 3.50 moles of H2SO4

Now we have the number of moles, and the molar mass for H2SO4 is 98.079g/mol, now we can find the mass in grams:

98.079g = 1 mol

x grams = 3.50 moles

x = 343.3 grams of H2SO4
