Q: A solution is prepared by dissolving 10.0 g of NaCl in enough water to make 250.0 mL of solution. What is the molarity of the solution? (Molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol)

$$M = \frac{\text{moles}}{\text{liters}} = \frac{10.0\ \mathrm{g} / 58.44\ \mathrm{g/mol}}{0.250\ \mathrm{L}} = 0.684\ \mathrm{M}$$

$$q = m c \Delta T = 100.0\ \mathrm{g} \times 4.18\ \mathrm{J/g\cdot ^\circ C} \times (75 - 25)\ ^\circ \mathrm{C} = 20,900\ \mathrm{J}$$
