Solution

Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of NaOH.

The molar mass of NaOH is given as 40.00 g/mol. So, the number of moles of NaOH can be calculated by dividing the mass of NaOH by its molar mass.

Number of moles = mass/molar mass = 120 g / 40.00 g/mol = 3 moles

Step 2: Calculate the molarity of the solution.

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. The volume of the solution is given as 5.00 L.

Molarity = moles/volume = 3 moles / 5.00 L = 0.600 M

So, the molarity of the solution is 0.600 M.
