    The molarity?
    What is the molarity of 147 grams of H2SO4 (MW = 98)? Cannot remember how to do this.

    Your question doesn't make much sense, molarity is concentration; you didn't tell us how much water it is mixed with. If you want how many moles, it's a different story.

    Molarity = moles per liter.

    Molar Mass = all the atomic weights added up in grams.



    H = 1
    O = 16
    S = 32

    (1 x 2) + 32 + (16 x 4) = 98

    (I see you got that far)



    If that were mixed with 1 liter of water, that would get you a 1.5 molar solution. If it were mixed with half of a liter (500mL) it would present you with a 3 molar solution...

    I hope this helps.
