Sugar is easily soluble in water and has a molar mass of 342.30 g/mol. what is the molar concentration of a 252.6 ml aqueous solution prepared with 70.3 g of sugar?

Respuesta :

0.811 M is the molar concentration of a 252.6 ml aqueous solution prepared with 70.3 g of sugar.

Define molarity of a solution.

Molarity (M) is the amount of a substance in a certain volume of solution. Molarity is defined as the moles of a solute per litres of a solution.

Given data:

252.6 mL = 0.2526 L

Next, we shall determine the number of moles of the sugar. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of sugar = 342.30 g/mol.

Mass of sugar = 70.3 g

Mole of sugar =?

Mole =[tex]\frac{mass}{molar \;mass}[/tex]

Mole =  [tex]\frac{70.3 g}{342.30}[/tex]

Mole of sugar = 0.205 mole

Finally, we shall determine the molar concentration of the sugar. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of sugar = 0.205 mole

Volume =  0.2526 L

Molarity =?

Molarity = [tex]\frac{Moles \;solute}{Volume of solution in litre}[/tex]

Molarity = [tex]\frac{0.205 mole}{ 0.2526 L}[/tex]

Molarity = 0.811 M

Therefore, the molar concentration of the solution is 0.811 M
