Answer:
0.016 M
Step-by-step explanation:
Molarity refers to the molar concentration of a solution and it can be calculated using the formula below:
Molarity (M) = number of moles (n) ÷ volume (V)
According to this question, the mass of KCl was given to be 0.72 grams and the volume of water as 600 mL.
Using mole = mass/molar mass to convert mass of KCl to moles
Molar mass of KCl = 39 + 35.5 = 74.5g/mol
mole = 0.72g ÷ 74.5g/mol
mole = 0.00966mol
Volume of water = 600mL = 600/1000 = 0.600L
Molarity, M = 0.00966 ÷ 0.600
Molarity of KCl solution = 0.016 M
