Solution Steps

Step 1: Understand the Definition of Molarity

Molarity (\(M\)) is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. The formula for molarity is: \[ M = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{liters of solution}} \]

Step 2: Identify Given Values

From the problem, we are given:

  • Moles of glucose = 2.0 moles
  • Volume of solution = 4.0 liters
Step 3: Calculate the Molarity

Using the formula for molarity: \[ M = \frac{2.0 \, \text{moles}}{4.0 \, \text{liters}} = 0.50 \, \text{M} \]

Final Answer

The molarity of the glucose solution is \(\boxed{0.50 \, \text{M glucose}}\).
