Question

Calculate the molarity of the solutions made by dissolving the following amounts of solute in water and making the volume up to the stated value.
5.0mol nitric acid in 2.0L
Do I just find the molarity for nitric acid only, because when I write out the balanced equation, the ratio is 1:1:1:1

Answer 1

I don't know what kind of equation you are writing but molarity = mols/L; therefore,
M = 5 mols/2 L = 2.5M
