What is the molarity of a solution containing 1.4 mol of acetic acid (HC2H3O2) in 250. mL of solution?
What is the molarity of a solution containing 1.4 mol of acetic acid (HC2H3O2) in 250. mL of solution?
By the unit-conversion method, we note that the concentration given in the problem statement is 1.4 mol per 250. mL (mol/mL). Since molarity = mol/L, the needed conversion is
Solution map: mLmol →Lmol =M
CALCULATE (250. mL1.4 mol) (L1000 mL)=L5.6 mol= 5.6 M
