The density of the nitric acid solution which is 63% by mass HNO3 is 1.41g/cc. What is the molarity of the solution?
In 100 g of solution.
Mass of nitric acid = 63 g
Moles of nitric acid = 63/ molar mass of nitric acid = 63/63 = 1.
Volume of 1oo g solution = 100 x density = 100 x 1.41 = 141ml = 0.141 L
Molarity = moles of nitric acid/ volume of solution in liter.
= 1/0.141 =7.092M
