We use the formula....."Concentration"="Moles of solute"/"Volume of solution", and get approx. 2.5*g KOH.

Explanation:

And so (i) we calculate the molar quantity.....

"Moles of KOH"="concentration"xx"volume"=0.179*mol*L^-1xx250.0*mLxx10^-3*L*mL^-1=4.475xx10^-2*mol.

And then (ii) we multiply this molar quantity by the formula mass of KOH, .....4.475xx10^-2*molxx56.11*g*mol^-1=??*g

Can you tell us pOH and pH of this solution...........?
