Answer to Question #324461 in General Chemistry for melissa

Question

given a stock bottle of 500 mL of 6M HCL What is the new concentration of the acid if it is diluted to a total volume of 750 mL

Answer 1

C₁V₁= C₂V₂

C₁V₁ - the molarity and volume of the concentrated solution

C₂V₂ - the molarity and volume of the dilute solution

C₂ = C₁V₁/V₂

C₂ = (0.5 L * 6M) / 0.75 L = 4М
