The molarity of a solution equals to the mole number of the solute divided by the volume of the solution. So the molarity is 2.5/0.75=3.33 mol/L.

Answer: 3.33M

Explanation: Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of solution.

Formula used :


Molarity=(n* 1000)/(V_s)

where,

n = moles of solute = 2.5 moles


V_s = volume of solution in ml= 750 ml

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get


Molarity=(2.5moles* 1000)/(750ml)=3.33M

Therefore, the molarity of solution is 3.33 M.
