easy trick to calculate molarity firstly
let me quickly revise the concept of
molarity we Define molarity as the
number of moles of solute dissolved and
1 liter solution the formula of molarity
is m equals n upon V where m is the
molarity of a solution n is the number
of moles of a solute V is the volume of
a solution for example consider that I
take 6 moles of HCL in this speaker now
I add water to this Beaker until the
water level reads to 1 liter Mark here
in this speaker the volume of a solution
is 1 liter we know that we have
dissolved 6 moles of HCL in this one
liter solution so the molarity of this
solution is 6 M therefore remember that
molarity measures the number of moles
that of a solute dissolved and 1 liter
solution
also note you down that one liter is
equal to 1 DM Cube one dm cube is equal
to 1000 CM Cube or thousand milliliter
hence remember all these important
points
now how can we calculate molarity using
super easy trach well consider these
numerical problems of molarity here in
this question 0.5 moles of sodium
chloride is dissolved so the number of
moles of solute n equals 0.5 mole
secondly the volume of solute is 400 ml
remember that a volume of a solute is
given in milliliter or centimeter Cube
we have to convert it to liter let me
repeat it a volume of a solute is given
in milliliter or centimeter Cube we have
to convert it to liter now to do so the
easy trick is to move the decimal point
three times to the left are dividing
milliliter by thousand after moving
decimal point three times to the left I
get 0.4 liter
we already know that molarity m equals n
upon V here n equals 0.5 mole and V is
0.4 liter I plug in these two values in
this equation after calculation I get
1.25 mole per liter are just 1.25 M thus
the molarity of this solution is 1.25 M
now in this question
0.9 mole of HCL is dissolved so the
number of moles of a solution is 0.9
mole secondly the volume of a solution
is 500 cm Cube I convert it to liter to
do so I move the decimal point three
times to the left I get 0.5 liter we
already know that molarity of a solution
is m equals n upon v e the value of n is
0.9 mole and the value of e is 0.5 mole
I plug in these two values in this
equation after calculation I get 1.8
mole per liter are just 1.8 m so the
molarity of this solution is 1.8 m now
in this question 0.2 moles of hno3 is
dissolved so the number of moles of a
solute is 0.2 mole secondly the volume
of a solute is 200 mL I move the decimal
point 3 3 times to the left I get 0.2
liter we know that the formula of
molarity is m equals n upon V here n is
0.2 mole and V is 0.2 liter I plug in
these values in this equation after
calculation I get 1 mole per liter or
just 1 M this is the molarity of this
solution is 1 M now let me teach you
some hard level questions of molarity
consider these numerical problems of
molarity here in this question instead
of moles of a solute mass of a solute is
given like 2 gram of sodium hydroxide
remember that in such type of numericals
we have to convert the mass of a solute
the number of moles of a solute
firstly I find the molar mass of sodium
hydroxide I write sodium plus oxygen
plus hydrogen the molar mass of sodium
is 23 gram the molar mass of oxygen is
16 gram and the molar mass of hydrogen
is one gram after addition I get 40 gram
so the number of moles of sodium
hydroxide is 40 Gram now to find the
number of moles of sodium hydroxide I
divide the given mass of sodium
hydroxide by its molar mass the given
mass of sodium hydroxide is 2 gram and
the molar mass of sodium hydroxide is 40
gram after calculation I get 0.05 mole
hence the number of moles of a solute n
equals 0.05 mole
secondly the volume of a solution is 600
cm Cube I convert it to liter I move the
decimal point three times to the left I
get 0.6 liter we know that molarity of a
solution is m equals n upon V the value
of n is 0.05 mole and the value of V is
0.6 liter I plug in these two values in
this equation after calculation I get
0.0 at 3 mole per liter are just
0.083 m so the molarity of this solution
is
0.083 M now in this problem only mass of
a solute hno3 is given firstly I find
the molar mass of hno3 I write h plus n
plus 3 oxygen because there are three
atoms of oxygen we know that the molar
mass of hydrogen is one gram the molar
mass of nitrogen is 14 gram there are
three atoms of oxygen and the molar mass
of oxygen is 16 gram after addition I
get 63 gram so the molar mass of hno3 is
63 Gram now to find the number of moles
of hno3 I divide given mass of hno3 by
its molar mass the given mass of hno3 is
4 gram and its molar mass is 63 gram
after calculation I get
0.06 small secondly the volume of a
solution is 80 milliliter I convert it
to liter to do so I move the decimal
point three times to the left I get
0.08 liter we already know that molar
TFA solution is m equals n upon V the
value of n is 0.06 mole and the value of
V is 0.08 liter I plug in these two
values in this equation after
calculation I get
0.75 mole per liter or just 0.75 m so
the molarity of this solution is 0.75 m
lastly pause the video and try to solve
this numerical problem
firstly I find the molar mass of HCL I
write hydrogen plus chlorine the molar
mass of hydrogen is 1 gram and that of
chlorine is 35.5 gram after addition I
get 36.5 Gram now to find the number of
moles of a solute I divide given mass of
HCL by its molar mass the given mass is
20 gram and the molar mass is 36.5 gram
after calculation I get 0.55 mole
secondly the volume of a solution is 0.5
DM Cube we already know that 1 liter is
equal to 1 DM Cube so 0.5 DM cube is
equal to 0.5 liter also we know that
molarity is equal to n upon V I plug in
these two values in this equation after
calculation I get 1.1 mole per liter are
just 1.1 M thus the molarity of this
solution is 1.1 M therefore using this
simple trick we can easily calculate the
molarity of any solution
