Explanation / Answer

Molarity of 3% (m/v) H2O2 solution

3 g H2O2 in 100 ml water

moles of H2O2 = 3 g/34 g/mol

                         = 0.088 mol

molarity = moles/L of solution

So,

molarity of 3% H2O2 solution = 0.088 mol/0.1 L

                                                = 0.88 M

Molarity of 1.5% (m/v) H2O2 solution

1.5 g H2O2 in 100 ml water

moles of H2O2 = 1.5 g/34 g/mol

                         = 0.044 mol

molarity = moles/L of solution

So,

molarity of 3% H2O2 solution = 0.044 mol/0.1 L

                                                = 0.44 M
