Question

Calculate the molarity of the two solutions. The first solution contains 0.550 mol of NaOH in 1.40 L of solution.

Answer 1

0.393 mol/L.

Step-by-step explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Number of mole of NaOH = 0.550 mol

Volume of solution = 1.40 L

Molarity of NaOH =.?

Molarity of a solution is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of the solution. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Molarity = mole /Volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the molarity of the NaOH solution as follow:

Number of mole of NaOH = 0.550 mol

Volume of solution = 1.40 L

Molarity of NaOH =.?

Molarity = mole / Volume

Molarity of NaOH = 0.55 / 1.4

Molarity of NaOH = 0.393 mol/L

Thus, the molarity of the NaOH solution is 0.393 mol/L.
