What is the molar concentration of sulfuric acid given the following data?

The acid is supplied as a 98% "(w/w)" solution; rho_"acid"=1.84*g*cm^-3. Can you provide the concentration with respect to "sulfuric acid"?

Approx. 18*mol*L^-1...........

Explanation:

We want the quotient, "Moles of sulfuric acid"/"Volume of solution" with respect to the sulfuric acid...........

And so, if we have a 1*cm^3 volume of the acid..........

"Concentration"=((1.84*gxx98%)/(98.08*g*mol^-1))/(1*cm^3xx10^-3*L*cm^-3)=18.48*mol*L^-1.
