Question

Calculate the molarity of a solution with 233.772g sodium chloride dissolved in 2,000mL of water

Answer 1

The molarity is 2M

Step-by-step explanation:

First , we calculate the weight of 1 mol of NaCl:

Weight 1mol NaCl= Weight Na + Weight Cl= 23 g+ 35, 5 g= 58, 5 g/mol

58,5 g---1 mol NaCl

233,772 g--------x= (233,772 g x1 mol NaCl)/58,5 g= 4 mol NaCl

A solution molar--> moles of solute in 1 L of solution:

2 L-----4 mol NaCl

1L----x0( 1L x4mol NaCl)/4L =2moles NaCl---> 2 M
