Chapter F, Problem J.20E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Molarity of ${\text{NaC}}_{\text{6}}{\text{H}}_{\text{5}}{\text{CO}}_{\text{2}}$ solution has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Molarity of the solution is defined as the number of moles of solute that is dissolved in the volume of solution in liters.  Unit of molarity is $\text{mol}\cdot {\text{L}}^{-1}$.  The equation for molarity is given as follows;

    $\text{Molarity (M)}=\frac{\text{Amount of solute in moles}}{\text{Volume of solution in liters}}$

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Chemical equation for the proton transfer reaction of ${\text{NaC}}_{\text{6}}{\text{H}}_{\text{5}}{\text{CO}}_{\text{2}}$ has to be written.
