Answer:
If 50.0 grams of HCl were dissolved in enough water to make a solution with a total volume of 5.0 liters, then the molarity of the solution is 0.282M.
How do we calculate molarity?
Molarity of any solution will be calculated by using the below equation:
M = n/V, where
n = moles of solute
V = volume of solvent in L
Moles will be calculated by using the below equation:
n = W/M, where
W = given mass = 50g
M = molar mass = 35.45 g/mol
n = 50/35.45 = 1.41 moles
On putting values in the above equation, we get
M = 1.41mol / 5L = 0.282M
Hence required molarity of solution is 0.282 M.
