NEET Chemistry (general) MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

Calculate the molarity of a solution when 8 g of NaOH is dissolved in 500 mL of solution.

A

0.4 M

B

0.8 M

C

0.2 M

D

1.0 M

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Using the molarity formula from NCERT, M = moles of solute/volume of solution in L. Moles of NaOH = 8 g / 40 g/mol = 0.2 mol. Volume in liters = 500 mL / 1000 = 0.5 L. M = 0.2 mol / 0.5 L = 0.4 M.
