To what volume should you dilute 20 of a 11.0 solution to obtain a 0.140 solution?
Dilution Equation: M1*V1 = M2*V2
Find out what the final volume,V2, should be as a start.
V2 = M1*V1 / M2
= (11.0M)(20 mL)/(0.140M)
= 1571.42857 mL
Find out what the final volume,V2, should be as a start.
V2 = M1*V1 / M2
= (11.0M)(20 mL)/(0.140M)
= 1571.42857 mL
* 1000 ml = 1 L
1571.42857 mL/1000 = 1.57142857 = 1.6 (rounded to two significant numbers)
