Answer:1)1.99 M

Explanation:

Molarity  is given as = moles solute/Liter solution

The solute which is LiOH is already given in moles as 1.495 moles

Given that solution  is  750 mL,  we convert to liters.

Liters of the solution=  mL of the solution   x (1 L/1000 mL)

750 mL x (1 L/1000 mL)

0.75 L

Molarity = moles solute/Liter solution

Molarity = 1.495 moles of LiOH/0.75 L of solution

Molarity = 1.99M

The molarity of this solution is 1.99M (moles per liter).
