Answer:


\boxed {\boxed {\sf D. \ 0.25 \ M}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Molarity is a measure of concentration in moles per liter.


molarity= (moles \ of \ solute)/( liters \ of \ solution)

The solution contains 0.75 moles of sodium chloride and has a volume of 3.0 liters.

  • moles of solute = 0.75 mol NaCl
  • liters of solution = 3.0 L

Substitute these values into the formula.


molarity= ( 0.75 \ mol \ NaCl)/(3.0 \ L)


molarity= 0.25 \ mol \ NaCl/L

Molarity has the molar (M) as its unit. 1 molar is equal to 1 mole per liter.


molarity= 0.25 \ M \

The molarity of the solution is 0.25 Molar and Choice D is correct.
