mole concept

in 100g - 35g of hcl is there in the solution so 35/v= 1.46 g/ml 35/1.46= v which gives me 23.97 ml. 1 mole - 36.5g that means 35/36.5 = .958 moles molarity = .958*1000/23.97ml = 40M is wht im getting but ans is 14M

100gm soln has 35gm of HCl density is 1.46g/ml , i.e 100ml solution weighs 146gm Therefore 100gm soln has 100*100/146 ml volume = 68.49 ml 35gm HCl in 68.49 ml I.e 0.95 moles per 68.49 ml Or 0.95 moles per 68.49/1000 Litre 0.95/(68.49/1000) comes out to be nearly 14 My approach has a lot of calculation, anyone with a better approach pls reply

Nicely done. If you take the basis to be 1 l solution, the number of moles in it would be the molarity itself. Since you have the density, mass of 1 l solution would be 1460 g. Since 100 g solution has 35 g HCl, 1460 g soln would have 1460 x 0.35 g HCl (unitary method)
Moles of HCl would be approx 14 in 1 L solution which is the molarity.

yea pretty much going by the basic definations would be easiest, 35% sol of hcl would imply in a quantiy of 100gm solution,we have 35gm hcl by mass. so, 1.) step 1:-mole of hcl would be 35/(36.5), lets say this quantity is "n" 2.) step 2:- volume of solution would be calculated through the density, d=m/v so v=m/d=100/(1.46) ml (denoted by v) 3.) step 3:- molarity=moles of solute/volume of soln(in L) = (n/v)*1000 (for L conversion). this would give you a value of ~14M @BroGotNoQuotes
