Question

you wish to make a 0.161 m hydroiodic acid solution from a stock solution of 3.00 m hydroiodic acid. how much concentrated acid must you add to obtain a total volume of 100 ml of the dilute solution?

Answer 1

5.367 ml of the concentrated acid must be added to obtain a total volume of 100 ml of the dilute solution.

Dilution is defined as the process in which the concentration of a sample is decreased by adding more solvent. The dilution formula is given below.

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

where C₁ = initial concentration of sample = 3.00 m

V₁ = initial volume of sample

C₂ = final concentration after dilution = 0.161 m

V₂ = total final volume after dilution = 100 ml

Plug in the values to the formula and solve for the volume of the concentrated acid that must be added.

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

3.00 m (V₁) = 0.161 m (100 ml)

V₁ = 5.367 ml
