Answer: The molarity is 0.25 M

Step-by-step explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.


Molarity=(n* 1000)/(V_s)

where,

n = moles of solute


V_s = volume of solution in ml

moles of
CO_2 =
\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=(11g)/(44g/mol)=0.25mol

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get


Molarity=(0.25* 1000)/(1000ml)


Molarity=0.25M

Therefore, the molarity is 0.25 M
