  • Calculate Molarity: Step-by-Step Guide for KCl Solutions
    Here's how to calculate the molarity of a KCl solution:

    1. Convert grams of KCl to moles:

    * Find the molar mass of KCl: K (39.10 g/mol) + Cl (35.45 g/mol) = 74.55 g/mol

    * Divide the mass of KCl by its molar mass: 140 g / 74.55 g/mol = 1.87 mol KCl

    2. Convert milliliters of water to liters:

    * Divide the volume by 1000: 600 mL / 1000 mL/L = 0.600 L

    3. Calculate molarity:

    * Molarity (M) = moles of solute / liters of solution

    * M = 1.87 mol KCl / 0.600 L = 3.12 M

    Therefore, the molarity of the KCl solution is 3.12 M.
