Answer:
Molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution is 1.443 M/L
Explanation:
Given;
0.60 M concentration of NaOH contains 2.0 L
3.0 M concentration of NaOH contains 495 mL
Molarity is given as concentration of the solute per liters of the solvent.
If the volumes of the two solutions are additive, then;
the total volume of NaOH = 2 L + 0.495 L = 2.495 L
the total concentration of NaOH = 0.6 M + 3.0 M = 3.6 M
Molarity of NaOH solution = 3.6 / 2.495
Molarity of NaOH solution = 1.443 M/L
Therefore, molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution is 1.443 M/L
