Answer:
M = 0.138 M
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of glucose = 12.55 g
Volume of solution = 500 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
Number of moles of glucose:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 12.55 g/ 180.156 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.069 mol
Volume in L:
500 mL × 1 L /1000 mL
0.5 L
Molarity:
M = 0.069 mol / 0.5 L
M = 0.138 M
