Answer: The concentration, in moles per litre, of a solution formed when 13.0 g of calcium hydroxide is dissolved in 5.0 L is 0.036 M
Explanation:
Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.
[tex]Molarity=\frac{n}{V_s}[/tex]
where,
n = moles of solute
[tex]V_s[/tex] = volume of solution in L
moles of [tex]Ca(OH)_2[/tex] = [tex]\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{13.0g}{74g/mol}=0.18mol[/tex]
Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get
[tex]Molarity=\frac{0.18}{5.0L}=0.036M[/tex]
Therefore, the concentration, in moles per litre, of a solution formed when 13.0 g of calcium hydroxide is dissolved in 5.0 L is 0.036 M
