What is the molarity of a solution made by dissolving 39.4g of lithium chloride in enough water to make 1.59L of solution?

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

Explanation:

Here, #"Moles of solute"/"Volume of solution"# #=# #(39.4*g)/(42.39*g*mol^-1)xx1/(1.59*L)#

#=# #??*mol*L^-1#

I think they prescribe the lithium salts (as the halide) to sufferers of mania and bipolar disorder. Because the chloride is very hygroscopic they must cut it with a salt to make it free flowing.
