A)0.100 M
B)1.00 M
C)0.0250 M
D)0.400 M

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The molarity (M) of a solution is calculated using the formula M = moles of solute / liters of solution. The molar mass of NaCl is approximately 58.44 g/mol. Therefore, 5.84 grams of NaCl is equivalent to 0.1 moles (5.84 g / 58.44 g/mol). Given the final volume is 1.00 L, the molarity is 0.1 moles / 1.00 L = 0.100 M.
