What is the molarity of a solution that is made by diluting 50.00 mL of a 4.74 M solution of HCl to 250.00 mL?

Answer 1

Mateo Aguilar

#"0.948 M"#

Apply this formula.

#"M"_1"V"_1 = "M"_2"V"_2#

#"M"_2 = ("M"_1"V"_1)/("V"_2) = ("4.74 M"× 50.00 cancel"mL")/(250.00 cancel"mL") = "0.948 M"#

To find the molarity of the diluted solution, use the formula: M1V1 = M2V2.

M1 = 4.74 M (initial molarity) V1 = 50.00 mL (initial volume) V2 = 250.00 mL (final volume, after dilution)

Rearrange the formula to solve for M2:

M2 = (M1 * V1) / V2

M2 = (4.74 M * 50.00 mL) / 250.00 mL

M2 ≈ 0.948 M

Therefore, the molarity of the diluted solution is approximately 0.948 M.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
