    Assume you have 1 L of the material (you can assume any volume you want, you'll get the same answer).

    Using the density, the one L has a mass of 1114 g

    20% by mass of phosphoric acid means the mass of phosphoric acid is 0.20 * 1114 g

    Calculate the moles of phosphoric acid

    Molarity, M, mole / L = moles of acid / volume or 1 L
