“MOLARITY”
LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Calculating solution
concentration using
molarity.
Molarity
→ the number of moles of Solute
(the material dissolved) per liter of
solution.
Molarity
→ is the number of moles of
the solute contained in one
liter of the solution.
Example
→ Adding salt (NaCl) in some
volume of water (H2O).
Calculation
Two information are
needed:
→ The moles of solute present
in the solution.
→ The volume of solution (in
liters) containing the solute.
Formula
Steps for Working Molarity Problems

M= Molarity = moles of
solute/liters of solution

moles

M L
divide the

mass of moles
Grams the solute
of of
multiply
solute moles by solute
the molar

multiply
by 1000
liters of milliters
Solution (mL) of
divide solution

1. Determine what the problem is asking
for
2. write down all the information given to
you in the problem
3. make the conversion necessary: moles
and liters
4. use the triangle method to determine
the unknown
5. Make a final conversions if necessary
to give the requires result.
Example 1

How many grams of AgNO3 are required


to prepare 500 mL of a 2.50 M solution?
Example 2

A solution contains 12.25 g of NAOH in


750 mL. WHat is the molarity of the
solution?
quiz
1) You want to make a 1.45 M
solution of KBr, and you have 2.00
g of KBr to use. How many mL of
this solution can be made?
2) 80.0 grams of glucose
(C6H12O6, mol. wt = 180.
g/mol) is dissolved in enough
water to make 1.00 L of
solution. What is its molarity?
