Answer: E. 1.73 mol/L

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

[tex]Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}[/tex]

where,

n = moles of solute

[tex]V_s[/tex] = volume of solution in ml

moles of [tex]NH_3[/tex] (solute) = [tex]\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{30.0g}{17g/mol}=1.76[/tex]

mass of water (solvent )= 70.0 g

mass of solution = moles of [tex]NH_3[/tex] (solute) + mass of water (solvent ) = (30.0 + 70.0) g= 100.0 g

density of solution = 0.982 g/ml

volume of solution = [tex]\frac{\text {mass of solution}}{\text {density of solution}}=\frac{100.0g}{0.982g/ml}=101.8ml[/tex]

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get

[tex]Molarity=\frac{1.76\times 1000}{101.8ml}=1.73M[/tex]

Therefore, the molarity of solution is 1.73 mol/L
