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

If there are #58*g# #NaCl# solute there are #1# #mol# each solute particles, #Na^+#, and #Cl^-# in solution.

And thus #"Molarity"# #=# #1*mol*L^-1# with respect to #NaCl(aq)#.

What is the molarity of an #58.5*g# mass of sodium chloride dissolved in enough water to make #1*L# of solution?
