Question

If you increase the solute amount but keep the solution volume the same what

happens to the Molarity?

Answer 1

Answer: Molarity increases

Step-by-step explanation:

Molarity, also known as concentration in moles/dm3 or g/dm3, is calculated by dividing the amount of solute dissolved by the volume of solvent. So, Molarity (c) = amount of solute (n) / volume (v)

i.e c = n/v

Hence, molarity is directly proportional to the amount of solute dissolved, and inversely proportional to the volume of solvent.

Thus, at same volume, any increase in solute amount increases molarity while a decrease will also decreases molarity.
