Q: Convert 0.0056 kilometers to centimeters. (1 km = 1000 m, 1 m = 100 cm)

$$0.0056\ \mathrm{km} \times \frac{1000\ \mathrm{m}}{1\ \mathrm{km}} \times \frac{100\ \mathrm{cm}}{1\ \mathrm{m}} = 560\ \mathrm{cm}$$

Q: A neutral atom of chlorine has an atomic number of 17 and a mass number of 35. How many neutrons does it have?

$$\text{Number of neutrons} = 35 - 17 = 18$$

Q: How many molecules are present in 0.25 moles of water ($$\mathrm{H_2O}$$)? ($$N_A = 6.022 \times 10$$^{23}$$\ \mathrm{mol}^{-1})$$

$$0.25 \times 6.022 \times 10$$^{23}$$ = 1.51 \times 10$$^{23}$$ molecules

Q: A solution is prepared by dissolving 10.0 g of NaCl in enough water to make 250 mL of solution. What is the molarity of the solution? (Molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol)
