calculate the molarity of each of the following solutions
LectureNotes said calculate the molarity of each of the following solutions
Answer: To calculate the molarity of a solution, you need to know the moles of solute and the volume of solution in liters. Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.
Let’s say we have Solution A with 0.5 moles of solute dissolved in 0.25 L of solution. To calculate the molarity of Solution A:
Molarity = Moles of Solute / Volume of Solution in Liters
Molarity of Solution A = 0.5 moles / 0.25 L = 2 mol/L
So, the molarity of Solution A is 2 mol/L.
Similarly, if we have Solution B with 0.8 moles of solute dissolved in 0.4 L of solution, we can calculate the molarity of Solution B as follows:
Molarity of Solution B = 0.8 moles / 0.4 L = 2 mol/L
Therefore, the molarity of Solution B is also 2 mol/L.
