What is the molarity of a solution that contains 17g of NH₃ in 0.50L of solution?

Please explain as well!

Step-by-step explanation:

Because molarity is mol/L, we'll have to convert 17g to mol.

After obtaining the mol, we'll divide that by the volume to obtain Molarity.

Molar mass of Ammonia:-


\\ \sf\longmapsto NH_3


\\ \sf\longmapsto 14u+3(1u)


\\ \sf\longmapsto 14u+3u


\\ \sf\longmapsto 17u


\\ \sf\longmapsto 17g/mol

Moles of Ammonia:-


\boxed{\sf No\:of\:moles =(Given\:mass)/(Molar\:mass)}


\\ \sf\longmapsto No\:of\:moles=(17)/(17)


\\ \sf\longmapsto No\;of\:moles=1mol

  • Volume of solution=0.50L

We know


\boxed{\sf Molarity=(Moles\:of\:solute)/(Volume\:of\: Solution\:in\:L)}


\\ \sf\longmapsto Molarity=(1)/(0.50)


\\ \sf\longmapsto Molarity=2M
