Question

C

Answer 1

Answer:

2.74 M

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium chloride = 80.0 g

Volume of water = 500.0 mL

Molarity of solution = ?

Solution:

Molarity is used to describe the concentration of solution. It tells how many moles are dissolve in per litter of solution.

Formula:

Molarity = number of moles of solute / L of solution

Now we will convert the mL into L.

500.0 mL× 1 L /1000 mL =  0.5 L

In next step we will calculate the number of moles of sodium chloride.

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 80.0 g/ 58.4 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.37 mol

Molarity:

M =  1.37 mol/ 0.5 L

M =  2.74 M
