#c = "0.40 mol/L"#

Explanation:

The formula for molar concentration #c# is

#c = "moles"/"litres"#

#"Moles" = 5.6 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g KOH"))) × "1 mol KOH"/(56.11 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("g KOH")))) = "0.0998 mol KOH"#

#"Litres" = 250 "mL" × "1 L"/(1000 "mL") = "0.2500 L"#

#c = "0.0998 mol"/"0.2500 L" = "0.40 mol/L"#
