Answer:

0.46 L

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to keep in mind the following definition of molarity:

  • Molarity = Number of moles / liters

We now input the given number of moles and molarity:

  • 9.4 M = 4.36 mol / liters

And calculate how many liters are required:

  • liters = 4.36 mol / 9.4 M
  • liters = 0.46 L
