Taking into account the definition of molarity, the concentration of the solution is 0.855 $\frac{moles}{liter}$ .

<h3>Definition of molarity</h3>

Molar concentration or molarity is a measure of the concentration of a solute in a solution and indicates the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The molarity of a solution is calculated by dividing the moles of solute by the volume of the solution:

$Molarity=\frac{number of moles}{volume}$
