Answer:
[C₆H₁₂O₆] = 0.139 M
Explanation:
Molarity si defined as a sort of concentration. It indicates the moles of solute that are contained in 1 L of solution.
We can also say, that molarity are the mmoles of solute contained in 1 mL of solution.
For this case, the solute is sugar (glucose). Let's determine M (mmol/mL)
(3.95 g . 1mol / 180g) . (1000 mmol / 1mol) / 158 mL
We determine moles, we convert them to mmoles, we divide by mL
M = 0.139 M
Moles = 3.95 g . 1mol / 180g → 0.0219 mol
We convert mL to L → 158 mL . 1L/1000mL = 0.158L
M = 0.0219 mol / 0.158L = 0.139 M
