Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf molarity = 0.17 \ M \ C_6H_12O_6}}

Explanation:

Molarity is found by dividing the moles of solute by liters of solution.

molarity = \frac {moles}{liters}

We are given grams of a compound and milliliters of solution, so we must make 2 conversions.

1. Gram to Moles

We must use the molar mass. First, use the Periodic Table to find the molar masses of the individual elements.

  • C: 12.011 g/mol
  • H: 1.008 g/mol
  • O: 15.999 g/mol

Next, look at the formula and note the subscripts. This tells us the number of atoms in 1 molecule. We multiply the molar mass of each element by its subscript.

6(12.011)+12(1.008)+6(15.999)=180.156 g/mol

Use this number as a ratio.

\frac {180.156 \ g\ C_6H_12 O_6}{ 1 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6}

Multiply by the given number of grams.

78 \ g \ C_6H_12O_6 *\frac {180.156 \ g\ C_6H_12 O_6}{ 1 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6}

Flip the fraction and divide.

78 \ g \ C_6H_12O_6 *\frac { 1 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6}{180.156 \ g\ C_6H_12 O_6}

\frac { 78 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6}{180.156 }= 0.432958102977 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6

2. Milliliters to Liters

There are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter.

\frac {1 \ L }{ 1000 \ mL}

Multiply by 2500 mL.

2500 \ mL* \frac {1 \ L }{ 1000 \ mL}

2500 * \frac {1 \ L }{ 1000 }= 2.5 \ L

3. Calculate Molarity

Finally, divide the moles by the liters.

molarity = \frac {0.432958102977 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6}{ 2.5 \ L}

molarity = 0.173183241191 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6/L

The original measurement has 2 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. That is the hundredth place and the 3 tells us to leave the 7.

molarity \approx 0.17 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6 /L

1 mole per liter is also equal to 1 M.

molarity = 0.17 \ M \ C_6H_12O_6

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer: Molarity of MgCl_2 in the original sample was 1.96M

Explanation:

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

Molarity=\frac{\text{no of moles}}{\text{Volume in L}}

{\text {moles of solute}=\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{186g}{95g/mol}=1.96

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

Molarity=\frac{1.96}{1.00L}

Molarity=1.96mol/L

Thus molarity of MgCl_2 in the original sample was 1.96M

Describe the reaction of zinc with sulphuric acid​
icang [17]

Answer:

Zinc reacts with dilute sulphuric acid to produce hydrogen gas (H2) and zinc sulphate. This is an example of displacement reaction of a non-metal by a metal. ... ZnSO4 is different in chemical composition and chemical properties than Zn and H2SO4 so it is a chemical change.
