The new concentration : 7.5 M
Given
500.0 mL(0.5 L) of a 15.0M solution acetic acid
500.0 mL(0.5 L) of water
Required
The new concentration
Solution
Dilution is the process of adding solvent to get a more dilute solution.
The moles(n) before and after dilution are the same.
Can be formulated :
M₁V₁=M₂V₂
M₁ = Molarity of the solution before dilution
V₁ = volume of the solution before dilution
M₂ = Molarity of the solution after dilution
V₂ = Molarity volume of the solution after dilution
Input the value :
M₂=(M₁V₁)/V₂
M₂=(15x0.5)/1
M₂=7.5 M
