What is the molarity of the solution?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a 0.5 molar
  2. b 1 molar
  3. c 2 molar
  4. d 2.86 molar
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: c 2 molar

Moles = 20/40 = 0.5; S = 0.5/0.25 = 2 molar.

Why the other options are wrong

  • a 0.5 molar: 0.5 is the number of moles (20/40), not divided by the volume; 0.5/0.25 = 2 molar.
  • b 1 molar: 1 molar would need 10 g in 250 mL; here there is 20 g, 2 molar.
  • d 2.86 molar: 2.86 molar uses a wrong molecular mass; NaOH = 40, giving 2 molar.
