Density = mass / volume
Density = (45g) / (9 [volume units])
Density = 5g / [volume unit]
There was no specification on the units of volume. However, whatever it may be, just replace the square brackets with the value and your units will be correct.
Answer:
111.15 g are required to prepare 500 ml of a 3 M solution
Explanation:
In a 3 M solution of Ca(OH)₂ there are 3 moles of Ca(OH)₂ per liter solution. In 500 ml of this solution, there will be (3 mol/2) 1.5 mol Ca(OH)₂.
Since 1 mol of Ca(OH)₂ has a mass of 74.1 g, 1.5 mol will have a mass of
(1.5 mol Ca(OH)₂ *(74.1 g / 1 mol)) 111.15 g. This mass of Ca(OH)₂ is required to prepare the 500 ml 3 M solution.
