The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

A certain molecular compound M has a solubility in acetone of 0.737g/mL at 10.°C .Calculate the mass of M that's dissolved in 9.0 L of a saturated solution of M in acetone at this temperature.

Be sure your answer has the correct unit symbol and number of significant digits.

Answer: 6633 g of M is dissolved in 9.0 L of saturated solution in hexane at this temperature.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 0.737g of solute is present in 1ml of solution

i.e 1ml of solution contains = 0.737 g of solute

Thus 9L or 9000ml of solution contains=
(0.737g)/(1ml)* 9000ml=6633g

Thus 6633 g of M is dissolved in 9.0 L of saturated solution in hexane at this temperature.
