Pure acetic acid (hc2h3o2) is a liquid and is known as glacial acetic acid. calculate the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 50.00 ml of glacial acetic acid at 25 °c in sufficient water to give 500.0 ml of solution. the density of glacial acetic acid at 25 °c is 1.05 g/ml

In order to find the molarity of the solution, we first require the moles of acetic acid added. For this, we need the mass which is:

Mass = volume * density

Mass = 50 * 1.05

Mass = 52.5 grams

Moles = mass / molecular weight

Moles = 52.5 / 60.05

Moles = 0.874 mol

Next, we know that the molarity of a solution is:

Molarity = moles / liter

Molarity = 0.874 / 0.5

Molarity = 1.75 M
