Answer:

1.25 M

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Mass of KI (solute): 20.68 g

Volume of the solution: 100 mL (0.100 L)

Step 2: Calculate the moles of solute

The molar mass of KI is 166.00 g/mol.

20.68 g × 1 mol/166.00 g = 0.1246 mol

Step 3: Calculate the molar concentration of KI

Molarity is equal to the moles of solute divided by the liters of solution.

M = 0.1246 mol/0.100 L= 1.25 M
