Glucose has a molecular weight of 180 Daltons. A laboratory technician dissolves 5
grams of glucose into 100 mL of water (this is also known as a 5% weight/volume
solution). What is the molarity of the solution?
Step 1: Convert 5 g per 100 mL into g/L
Step 2: Convert g/L into moles/L using 180 g = 1 moles as the conversion factor.
