Answer:

0.009

Explanation:

Molarity, a measure of molar concentration of a substance is calculated thus;

Molarity = number of moles ÷ volume

According to the provided information, mass of KCl = 0.47g, volume of water = 700ml

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Molar Mass of KCl = 39.10 + 35.453

= 74.553g/mol

Mole = 0.47/74.55

Mole = 0.0063mol

Volume of water = 700ml = 700/1000 = 0.7L

Molarity = 0.006/0.7

Molarity = 0.00857

The value of molarity rounded to three decimal places (3 d.p) = 0.009
