    Usually concentrations are expressed as molarity, or moles of solute per liter solution. First, convert the mass of bromide ion to moles. The molar mass of bromine is 79.904 g/mol.

    Moles of bromine = 65 mg * 1 g/1000 mg * 1 mol/79.904 g = 8.135*10⁻⁴ moles

    Next, convert the mass of seawater to volume using the density.

    Volume of seawater = 1 kg * 1 m³ / 1,025 kg * 1000 L/1 m³ = 0.976 L

    Thus,

    Molarity = 8.135*10⁻⁴ moles/0.976 L = 8.335*10⁻⁴ M
