Question


chemist to analyze samples of trace metals maybe standard solutions for contains 1000.0 mg/L concentrations of the metals. If a chemist wishes to dilute a 1000.0 mg/L stock solution to prepare 500 mL of a working standard that has a concentration of 7.00 mg/L, what volume of the 1000 mg/L standard solution is needed?

Explanation / Answer

Initial :

Concentration C1 = 1000.0 mg/L

Volume V1 = ?

After dilution:

Concentration C2 = 7.00 mg/L

Volume V2 = 500 mL

C1V1 = C2V2

V1 = C2V2/ C1

= (7.00 mg/L) (500 mL) / (1000.0 mg/L)

= 3.5 mL

V1 = 3.5 mL

Therefore, 3.5 mL of the 1000 mg/L standard solution is needed to prepare 500 mL of a working standard that has a concentration of 7.00 mg/L.
