Answer: The molarity of the solution is 0.254 mol/L
Explanation:
Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute present per Liter of solution. It is a unit of concentration. The units used to express molarity is mol/L.
Mathematically,
[tex]\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}=\frac{\text{Given mass of solute}}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}[/tex]
We are given:
Given mass of solute = 100 g
Molar mass of solute = 342.28 g/mol
Volume of solution = 1.15 L
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{100}{342.28\times 1.15}=0.254mol/L[/tex]
Hence, the molarity of the solution is 0.254 mol/L
