what is the molarity of the student's sugar solution?

Question

A student is making a solution of sugar in water. If the student uses 0.64 moles of sugar and enough water to make 288.84 milliliters of solution, what is the molarity of the student's sugar solution? Please round the answer to the nearest 0.01 and include units but not the substance! thank you in advance.

Answer 1

The formula for molarity is M=moles solute divided by liters solution. The moles of solute are given in the question so one only needs to convert the milliliters into liters and then plug them into the equation. Since 1 L=1000mL 288.84 mL=.28884 L. Plugging that into the equation gives the following:

Molarity= (.64 moles)/(.28884 L)=2.2 M
