Answer: The molarity of the solution is 3 M.
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]Moles=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{87.75g}{58.44g/mol}=1.50mole[/tex]
[tex]V_s[/tex] = volume of solution in ml = 500 ml
[tex]Molarity=\frac{1.50\times 1000}{500}=3M[/tex]
The molarity of a solution that contains 87.75 g of NaCl in 500 mL of solution is 3 M.
