A student calculated the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.730 mol of table sugar (sucrose, C12H22O11) in 1.8x10^3 mL of water as 4.06x10^-4 M C12H22O11.

Explain the student's calculation error and explain how the student should solve for the correct value of molarity. Show a valid calculation for the molarity.

II. The student then takes a 1.00 M stock solution of table sugar (sucrose, C12H22O11) and mixes 0.305 L of stock solution with additional distilled water to create a dilute solution with a total volume of 1.25 L.

Explain how the student can determine the molarity of the resulting solution. Show a valid calculation for the final molarity. PLS HELP I'M TAKING MY EXAM NOW!!!!!

3 mL=1.8L;

C=0.730mol

1.8 L=0.406 M

C= 1.8L

0.730mol =0.406M

The student made a mistake because he did not convert a unit of volume from milliliters to liters. After all, molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

Error in the student's calculation is due to not conversion of volume unit and molarity of resulting solution is 0.244 M.

What is molarity?

Molarity of any solution is define as the no. of moles of solute present in per liter of solvent.

  • Given that, molarity of solution =  4.06 × 10⁻⁴ M

Moles of table sugar (solute) = 0.730 mole

Volume of water (solvent) = 1.8 × 10³ mL

For the calculation of molarity we have to covert the volume from mL to liter, so molarity is:

M = 0.730mole / 1.8L = 0.405 = 4.05 × 10⁻¹ M

From the calculation it is clear that student didn't converts the volume unit.

  • In the second part following information is given:

Molarity of stock solution = 1M

Taken volume of stock solution = 0.305L

Moles of stock solution = 1M × 0.305L = 0.305 mole

Total volume of resultant solution = 1.25 L

Molarity of resultant solution by mixing of stock solution in water = 0.305mole / 1.25L = 0.244 M

Hence, molarity of resultant solution is 0.244 M.
