Question

4.5 g of compound A (MW = 90) was used to make 250 mL of its aqueous solution. The molarity of the solution in M is x 10-1.
The value of x is _______. (Rounded off to the nearest integer)

Correct answer
2

Step-by-step explanation

Given, weight of compound A = 4.5 g

Molecular weight of compound A = 90 g/mol

Volume of solution (in mL) = 250 mL

Now, molarity is defined as number of moles of solute or compound A divided by volume of solution (in L).



= 2 101 M



Hence, x 101

x = 2
