![**Question:**
What is the molarity of a solution that contains 42.6 g NH₃ in 0.50 L solution?
**Options:**
- A. 34 M
- B. 5.0 M
- C. 0.50 M
- D. 0.029 M
- E. 1.0 M
**Explanation:**
To find the molarity, use the formula:
\[ \text{Molarity (M)} = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{liters of solution}} \]
First, calculate the moles of NH₃. The molar mass of NH₃ is approximately 17.03 g/mol.
\[ \text{Moles of NH₃} = \frac{42.6 \, \text{g}}{17.03 \, \text{g/mol}} \]
Then, divide the moles by the volume of the solution in liters (0.50 L) to find the molarity.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fd5ef5a88-aff3-4841-86ef-3a936127b5b4%2F4ef93319-4987-4789-83ad-53a7309a3c2d%2Fveq4jr_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
