ASAP What happens to a glass of pure fruit juice when water is added to it?

A - The number of moles of fruit juice increases.
B - The number of moles of fruit juice decreases.
C - The molarity of the juice increases.
D - The molarity of the juice decreases.

D. The MOLARITY of the juice DECREASES when water is added to it.

MOLARITY refers to the amount of a substance (solute) in a certain volume of solution. It is a measure of the CONCENTRATION OF A SOLUTION. In chemistry, molarity is calculated by dividing the number of moles of a solute by the volume of the solvent i.e.

MOLARITY (mol/L or M) = number of moles (n)/volume of solvent (V)

* The above equation means that the molarity of a solution is inversely proportional to its volume i.e. as molarity increases, volume decreases and vice versa.

According to this question, water is added to a glass of pure fruit juice (dilution). This means that the volume of the juice will increase. As the volume increases via addition of water, the MOLARITY DECREASES.
