What is the molarity of a solution with a volume of 974 mL containing 17 g of CuSO4

?

A. 0.109M CuSO4

B. 9.66M CuSO4

C. 2.79M CuSO4

D. 0.0001M CuSO

There are a number of ways to express concentration of a solution. This includes molarity. Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume of the solution. The concentration of the solution is calculated as follows:

Molarity = 17 g (1 mol / 159.61 g) / 974 mL (1 L / 1000 mL)

Molarity = 0.109 M
