What is the molarity of 5.0 L of a solution containing 200. g of dissolved CaCO3?

The molarity of a solution in which a particular compound
is dissolved is defined as the number of moles of the compound dissolved per liter of
the solution.


Here we have 5.0 L of solution which has 200
g of CaCO3 dissolved in it. The molar mass of CaCO3 is 100.0869 g/mol. This can be taken
as 100 g/mol. approximately.


200 g of CaCO3 is 200/100 = 2
moles of CaCO3.


As the 2 moles of CaCO3 is dissolved in 5 L
of the solution, the resulting molarity is given by 2/5 = 0.4
mol/liter.

Can (sec x - cosec x) / (tan x - cot x) be simplified further?

Given the expression ( sec x - csec x ) / (tan x - cot x) We need to simplify. We will use trigonometric identities ...
