Here is the problem: 18 g of C6H12O6 is dissolved in water to make 200 mL of solution. What is the molarity?

2
00:00:10.423 --> 00:00:13.894
Molarity is moles of solute per litre of solution.

3
00:00:14.694 --> 00:00:17.782
Molar mass of C6H12O6.

4
00:00:18.232 --> 00:00:19.892
Convert grams to moles.

5
00:00:20.342 --> 00:00:22.049
Convert the volume to litres.

6
00:00:22.499 --> 00:00:24.740
Molarity is moles per litre.

7
00:00:25.540 --> 00:00:31.589
So the answer is M equals 0.499567 mol/L.

8
00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:44.949
Molarity (mol/L, written M) uses the volume of the whole solution, not of the solvent alone. To make a solution, weigh the solute, dissolve it in less solvent, then top up to the final volume.

9
00:00:45.749 --> 00:00:56.616
n equals MV: 0.499567 times 0.2 equals 0.0999134 mol, which checks out.
