Kaiden Mcclure · Answer 1

There are a number of ways to express concentration of a solution. This includes molarity. Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume of the solution. Therefore, the molarity of the given solute in the solution is:

Molarity = 5 moles / 2 L = 2.5 moles / L

Marcelo Blevins · Answer 2

The molarity of a solution that contains 5.0 moles of solute in 2.0 L of solution is 2.5M.
