What is the final volume V2 in milliliters when 0.551 L of a 50.0 % (m/v) solution is diluted to 23.5 % (m/v)?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]V_2=1.17L[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for dilution processes, we must remember that the amount of solute remains the same, therefore, we can write:

[tex]V_1C_1=V_2C_2[/tex]

Whereas V accounts for volume and C for concentration that in this case is %(m/v). In such a way, the final volume V2 turns out:

[tex]V_2=\frac{V_1C_1}{C_2}= \frac{0.551L*50.0\%}{23.5\%}\\ \\V_2=1.17L[/tex]

Best regards.
