The answer is 100 Pa.

The formula for calculating pressure is :

Pressure = Force ÷ Area

We are given that :

mass = 20 kg
area = 2 m²

We also know that :

Force = mass ×g

So, force will be :

F = 20 × 10
F = 200 N

Now, we can finally calculate pressure :

P = 200 ÷ 2
P = 100 Pa

What is the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 10.0 grams of NaOH in enough water to make a solution with a total vol

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Solution :

Molecular mass of NaOH is 23 g/mol .

So, number of moles of NaOH is given by :

$n = \dfrac{10}{40}\ mole$

Now, we know molarity is given by :

$Molarity = \dfrac{Number \ of \ moles\ of \ salute}{Volume ( in \ Liter ) }$

$M = \dfrac{10}{40\times 2.4} \ M\\\\M = 0.104 \ M$

Hence, this is the required solution.
