Answer:

The molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

In this case, we have 0.055 moles of hydrochloric acid in 0.145 L of solution.

So the molarity of the solution is:

Molarity = moles of solute / liters of solution

= 0.055 mol / 0.145 L

= 0.379 M

Therefore, the molarity of the solution is 0.379 M.

I hope that helps!
