Understand the concept of molarity, which is defined as the number of moles of solute divided by the volume of solution in liters. The formula for molarity (M) is: , where is the number of moles of solute and is the volume of the solution in liters.
Identify the given values in the problem: 3.16 moles of NaCl and 1 liter of solution.
Substitute the given values into the molarity formula: .
Perform the division to calculate the molarity. Since the volume is 1 liter, the molarity is simply the number of moles of NaCl.
Conclude that the molarity of the NaCl solution is the result of the division, which corresponds to one of the provided answer choices.
