Question

What is the molarity of a solution containing 8.0 moles of solute in 120mL of solution?

Answer 1

Answer:
200/3 M which is approximately equal to 66.6667 M

Explanation:
Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

It can be calculated as follows:
$molarity = \frac{number of moles of solute}{liters of solution}$

We are given that:
number of moles of solute = 8 moles
volume of solution = 120 ml = 0.12 liters

Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the molarity as follows:
molarity = $\frac{8}{0.12} = \frac{200}{3} = 66.6667 M$

Hope this helps :)
