The molarity of pure water is:

Correct answer: D. 55.5

  • A. 1
  • B. 18
  • C. 36
  • D. 55.5

Explanation

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. Density of water is 1 kg/L so the mass of water in 1 L is 1000g. To find molarity we use the formula Moles = Mass / Molar mass Moles = 1000 / 18g = 55.56 mol
