  • Calculating Molarity: A Step-by-Step Guide with Example
    Here's how to calculate the molarity:

    Understanding Molarity

    Molarity (M) is a measure of concentration defined as moles of solute per liter of solution.

    Calculation

    1. Moles of solute: You have 25 moles of sucrose.

    2. Liters of solution: You have 50 liters of water. Since the sucrose dissolves in the water, the total volume of the solution is essentially 50 liters.

    3. Molarity:

    Molarity (M) = (Moles of solute) / (Liters of solution)

    M = 25 moles / 50 liters

    M = 0.5 M

    Therefore, the molarity of the sucrose solution is 0.5 M.
