If you mixed three Dixie cups’ contents together containing 0.05L of 1.0M lemonade, 0.05L of 2.5M lemonade, and 0.05L of 0.5M lemonade, what would be the molarity of the resulting solution?

Molarity of the resulting solution will be 1.33 M.

Explanation:

First we have to find the number of moles for each of the solution using the formula, moles = molarity × volume

For cup 1  = 1  M ×0.05 L = 0.05 moles

For cup 2 = 2.5 M × 0.05 L= 0.125 moles

For cup 3 = 0.5 M × 0.05 L = 0.025 moles

Total moles = 0.05 + 0.125 + 0.025  = 0.2 moles

We have to find the total volume as, 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 0.15 L

Now we have to find the molarity as, moles / volume = 0.2 moles/ 0.15 L = 1.33 M
