A beaker contains 175.32g of salt, NaCl (58.44g/mol). Water is added until the final volume is 2 liters. The solution should be described as

A. 87.66M

B. 29.22M

C. 3M

D. 1M

E. 1.5M

E. 1.5M

Explanation:

because there is total 175.32 g of NaCl dissolved in 2 liter of water, and 58.44 g = 1 mol

so total miles = 175.32/58.32 = 3 moles

now 3 moles are in 2 liter of water, hence one liter contains 3/2 = 1.5

Therefore answer is E. 1.5M
