#"Molarity"# #=# #"Moles of solute"/"Volume of solution"#

Explanation:

I suspect that your figures are wrong (please, I do realize that anyone can make a mistake; I know because I make plenty). Sodium chloride does not display much alcoholic solubility. Are you sure that the question specified ethanol not water?

If the solvent were ethanol,

#"Molarity"=(7.83*cancelg)/(58.44*cancelg*mol^-1)xx1/(0.0900*L)=??mol*L^-1#
