We know that Molarity = # mol/L

In the question, we are given grams - so we need to calculate the number of moles that we are dealing with. We can do this by first finding out what the molecular formula of calcium hydroxide is: Ca(OH)_{2

This means that we have 1 calcium and 2 hydroxides.

We can find the number of moles by taking the grams given divided by the molar mass of the molecule. We can find the molar mass of the molecule by taking each atomic mass of each atom (found on the periodic table) and adding them together:

Ca = 40.08g
O = 15.999g
H = 1.008g

We have 1 calcium, 2 oxygens, and 2 hydrogens. So let's add the atomic masses together:

40.08 + 2(15.999) + 2(1.008) = 74.094g

Now that we have the molar mass, we can find the number of moles due to already knowing the given amount in the question:

54.21g/74.09g = 0.73 moles of Ca(OH)_{2}

Now that we know the number of moles, we can solve for the molarity; The other part of the question gives us 560 mL of water - but this can quickly be converted to liters by moving the decimal to the left 3 places => 0.560 L

Knowing all of this information, we can plug it into the molarity equation:

Molarity = 0.73 mol/0.56 L
Molarity = 1.30

The molarity of the solution is 1.3 M.

azamat

Answer: the line Spectra of hydrogen lies between the ultra-violet, visible light and infra-red of the electro magnetic spectrum

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation spans an wide range of wavelengths and frequencies. This range is called the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum is generally divided into seven regions, in order of decreasing wavelength and increasing energy and frequency. The 7 regions includes; radio waves, microwaves, infrared (IR), visible light, ultraviolet (UV), X-rays and gamma rays.

lower-energy radiation, such as radio waves, is expressed as frequency while microwaves, infrared, visible and UV light are usually expressed as wavelength and finally, higher-energy radiation such as X-rays and gamma rays, is expressed in terms of energy per photon.

Therefore, hydrogen lies between the ultra-violet, visible light and infra-red region of the electro magnetic spectrum.

One mole of a metallic oxide reacts with one mole of hydrogen to produce two moles of the pure metal
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Lithium oxide, Li₂O.  

Explanation:

Hello!  

In this case, according to the given amounts, it is possible to write down the chemical reaction as shown below:

M_2O+H_2\rightarrow 2M+H_2O  

Which means that the metallic oxide has the following formula: M₂O. Next, we can set up the following proportional factors according to the chemical reaction:

5.00gM_2O*\frac{1molM_2O}{(2*X+16)gM_2O}*\frac{2molM}{1molM_2O}*\frac{XgM}{1molM}=2.32gM  

Thus, we perform the operations in order to obtain:

\frac{10X}{(2X+16)}=2.32  

So we solve for x as shown below:

10X=2.32(2X+16)\\\\10X=4.64X+37.12\\\\X=\frac{37.12}{10-4.64}\\\\X= 6.93g/mol  

Whose molar mass corresponds to lithium, and therefore, the metallic oxide is lithium oxide, Li₂O.  

Best regards!

How are antibodies and receptor molecules function similarly
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Antigens are molecules capable of stimulating an immune response. Each antigen has distinct surface features, or epitopes, resulting in specific responses. Antibodies (immunoglobins) are Y-shaped proteins produced by B cells of the immune system in response to exposure to antigens.
