I have a question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solution HX has HX x %m/m the density of y g/cm^3 its molecular weight is A what is its concentration in molar

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Don't think I've seen the unit %m/m before

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but seeing as molarity is moles over liters wouldn't the molarity be x/y?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

% m/m sorry it should be %w/w or weight percent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i'm going with xy/1000ml, never done one of these with varibles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think the answer is 10xy/A but i'll try to find for explanation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cos i'm using my own formula ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

from x weight percent in solution 100 g it exist x g from density=gram/volume so when i want volume, it goes to volume=gram/density v=100/y then 100/y cm^3 it exists x g 1000 cm^3 it exist x*1000/(100/y)=10xy g now we have 10xy g per dm^3 change it into mole 10xy/A mol/dm^3 The answer is 10xy/A
