To calculate the molarity we must know how much no. of moles of H2SO4 is present in 1 L of solution.

Now 1 mL contains H2SO4 as = 1.83 g,
So, 1L will contain 1830 g of H2SO4.

Also , it is 91% w/w , So from here get the no. of moles of H2SO4 present in 1 L of the solution.


For the second part , apply M1V1 = M2V2 and get the volume required.
