Question

1) In the laboratory, a student dilutes 18.3 mL of a 9.98 M perchloric acid solution to a total volume of 300.0 mL. What is the concentration of the diluted solution ?

------> ANSWER:   _________ M

2)   How many milliliters of 11.1 M hydroiodic acid solution should be used to prepare 3.50 L of 0.600 M HI?

------> ANSWER: _________ mL

3) In the laboratory you dilute 2.47 mL of a concentrated 12.0 M nitric acid solution to a total volume of 150 mL. What is the concentration of the dilute solution?

-------> ANSWER: __________ M

4) You wish to make a 0.405 M perchloric acid solution from a stock solution of6.00 M perchloric acid. How much concentrated acid must you add to obtain a total volume of 100 mL of the dilute solution?

--------> ANSWER: _________ mL

Explanation / Answer

V1= 18.3

1)

M1= 9.98

V2 = 300

M2 =

Use this formula

M1*V1 = M2*V2 (this comes from am ole balance, molarity times volume gives you the number of moles, which dont change when diluting

18.3ml*9.98 M = 300 ml *M

M = 0.6 M

2)

Similar to past question...

M1*V1 = M2*V2

11.1 M * V1 = 0.6 M * 3.5 L

V1 = 0.6*3.5 / 11.1 = 0.18 Liters or 180 ml

3) Similar to past questions

M1*V1 = M2 * V2

2.47 ml * 12M = 150 ml * M2

M2 = 2.47/150 * 12 = 0.197 M

4) Once again, the same questions

M1*V1 = M2*V2

0.405 M * V1 = 6M*100 ml

V1 = 6/0.405*100 = 1481 ml or 1.4 liters
