A solution has 20 percent by mass solute and density 1.2 g mL−1. The molar mass of solute is 40. What is the molarity?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 6 M

Take exactly 1 L of solution, because molarity is moles of solute per litre of solution. Its mass is density × volume = 1.2 g mL−1 × 1000 mL = 1200 g. A 20% mass fraction gives 0.20 × 1200 = 240 g solute. The solute amount is 240 ÷ 40 = 6 mol, so molarity = 6 mol ÷ 1 L = 6 M. Option D is correct; ignoring density would give an incorrect value.
