# A student prepares a standard solution of potassium permanganate, \(\text{KMnO}_4\), for a redox titration experiment. The student dissolves \(1.58\text{ g}\) of solid \(\text{KMnO}_4\) (molar mass \(158\text{ g/mol}\)) in enough distilled water to produce exactly \(250.0\text{ mL}\) of solution in a volumetric flask. What is the molarity of the \(\text{KMnO}_4\text{(aq)}\) solution?

A student prepares a standard solution of potassium permanganate, \(\text{KMnO}_4\), for a redox titration experiment. The student dissolves \(1.58\text{ g}\) of solid \(\text{KMnO}_4\) (molar mass \(158\text{ g/mol}\)) in enough distilled water to produce exactly \(250.0\text{ mL}\) of solution in a volumetric flask. What is the molarity of the \(\text{KMnO}_4\text{(aq)}\) solution?

- **A.** \(0.00400\text{ M}\)
- **B.** \(0.0100\text{ M}\)
- **C.** \(0.0400\text{ M}\)
- **D.** \(6.32\text{ M}\)
