Answer:

$M=0.250M$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the molarity of a solution is computed by dividing the moles of solute by the volume of solution in liters, we first need to compute the moles of solute knowing that the molar mass of calcium hydroxide is 74.1 g/mol as follows:

$n=1.85g*\frac{1mol}{74.1g}=0.0250mol$

Next, since the 100-mL solution is also expressed in liters by 0.100 L, we directly compute the molarity as shown below:

$M=\frac{0.0250mol}{0.100L}\\\\M=0.250M$

Which is expressed in molar units that are mol/L.

Best regards!

The answer:
we should know the meaning of each abbreviation:
ms means millisecond, its value is 10^-3 s
ns means means nanosecond, its value is 10^-9 s
ps means picosecond, its value is 10^-12 s
fs means femtosecond, its value is 1x 10^15 s

Expressions of the quantity 556.2 x 10^-12 are
556.2 x 10^-12 =556.2 ps
556.2 x 10^-12 =556.2 x 10^-9 x 10^-3= 556.2 x 10^-9 ms
556.2 x 10^-12 = 556.2 x 10^-3 x 10^-9 = 556.2 x 10^-3 ns
556.2 x 10^-12 = 556.2 x 10^- 27 x 10^15 = 556.2 x 10^- 27 fs

Describe all the relationships between pressure, volume, and temperature

hammer [34]

The pressure of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature, provided that the volume does not change (Amontons's law).
