To calculate the molarity (M) of a solution, you can use the formula:

\[
\text{Molarity (M)} = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{liters of solution}}
\]

In this case, you have 2 moles of solute dissolved in 4 liters of solvent. Assuming the volume of the solution is approximately equal to the volume of the solvent, the calculation would be:

\[
\text{M} = \frac{2 \text{ moles}}{4 \text{ liters}} = 0.5 \text{ M}
\]

Therefore, the molarity of the solution is 0.5 M.
