To find the molarity of the solution, we need to determine the number of moles of solute (NaOH) per liter of solution.
Given:
Volume of solution (V) = 3 L
Number of moles of NaOH (n) = 0.8 mol
Molarity (M) is defined as moles of solute per liter of solution. So, the molarity (M) of the solution can be calculated as follows:
M = n/V
Substituting the given values:
M = 0.8 mol / 3 L
M = 0.27 mol/L
Therefore, the molarity of the solution is 0.27 mol/L.
In this context:
n = number of moles of solute (in this case, NaOH)
V = volume of the solution
