The molarity of the HCl, if the solution has a density of 1. 20 g/ml will be 12.83 M
% of HCL in the solution = 39.0 %
Density of the solution = 1.20 g/ml
Molarity of HCL = ?
Volume of the solution is not given so we take it as 1.0 L
Calculate the mass of silution
mass = density × volume
mass of solution = 1.20 g/ml × 1000 ml/L × 1.0 L
mass of solution = 1200 g
Calculate the mass of HCl
38 % = 38 g / 100 g
mass of HCl = 1200 g (39 g / 100 g)
mass of HCl = 1200g × 0.39 g
mass of HCl = 468 g
Now calculate the number of moles of HCl
number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles of HCl = 468 g / 36.46 g
number of moles of HCl = 12.83 mol
Calculate molarity
molarity = number of moles of solute / volume L
molraty HCl = 12.83 mol / 1 L
molarity of HCl = 12.83 mol/L or 12.83 M
