Calculate the concentration in mol/dm3 of 8.0 g of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in solution with a volume of 50 cm3. (Note Ar(Na) = 23, Ar(O) = 16, Ar(H) = 1)

Calculate Mr(NaOH): Mr(NaOH) = 23 + 16 + 1 = 40, Calculate NaOH moles: n= m/Mr, n= 8.0/40, n= 0.2 moles, Calculate NaOH concentration:(converting from cm3 to dm3 by /1000) c= n/v, c= 0.2/(50/1000), c= 4.0 mol/dm3
