Questions

  1. What is the concentration or molarity of liquid EMS?

    1 answer
    1. The molarity of liquid Ethyl Methanesulfonate can be calculated using its density and molecular weight. The formula is: Molarity (moles/L) = Density (g/L) ÷ Molecular Weight (g/mol) × Purity. For this calculation: 1,206 g/L ÷ 124.16 g/mol × 0.994 = 9.65 M.
