![**Question:**
What is the % (w/v) of a 0.500 M glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) solution? The molar mass (MM) of glucose is 180 g/mol.
**Options:**
- ○ 18.0%
- ○ 1.80%
- ○ 9.00%
- ○ 90.0%
**Explanation:**
To solve this problem, follow these steps:
1. Calculate the mass of glucose in grams in one liter of the solution:
\[
\text{Mass} = \text{Molarity} \times \text{Molar Mass} \times \text{Volume}
\]
Given: Molarity (M) = 0.500 M and Molar Mass (MM) of glucose = 180 g/mol
For 1 liter of solution (Volume = 1 L):
\[
\text{Mass} = 0.500 \, \text{M} \times 180 \, \text{g/mol} \times 1 \, \text{L} = 90 \, \text{g}
\]
2. The % (w/v) concentration is defined as grams of solute (glucose) per 100 mL of solution.
\[
\%\ (w/v) = \left( \frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution in mL}} \right) \times 100
\]
\[
\%\ (w/v) = \left( \frac{90 \, \text{g}}{1000 \, \text{mL}} \right) \times 100
\]
\[
\%\ (w/v) = 9\%
\]
Thus, the correct answer is:
- ○ 9.00%](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F464fe16a-00d5-4182-8379-61bd4b8bbe02%2F245a37cb-dad1-4dc2-95e2-5fb918cc3dba%2Fk3sk6wr_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
