Answer to Question #144188 in General Chemistry for Pooja

Question

What is the dilution of 0.5mlis diluted to a total of 100ml

Answer 1

0.5 ml diluted to a total of 100ml

Initial volume, V = 0.5 ml

Final volume, V' = 100 ml

Degree of dilution

= Final volume,V'/initial volume,V

= 100/0.5

= 200

So, the solution is 200 times diluted.
