What is the molarity of a solution that contains 4.5 moles of solute in a 500 ml solution? show your work

The answer is:  " 9.0 M " .

Molarity, "M", equals moles of solute/ L solution.

1000 mL = 1 L (exact conversion).


(4.5 mol / 500 mL) * (1 L / 1000 mL) = (4.5) / (500 

Molarity, "M", equals moles of solute/ L solution.

1000 mL = 1 L (exact conversion).


(4.5 mol / 500 mL) * (1000 mL / 1L ) = (4.5 * 1000) / (500)  M ;
                                                          = (4.5 * 10) / 5   M ;
                                                          = (4.5 * 2) M = 9.0 M

The answer is:  " 9.0 M " .
 

The correct answer is weight.
