Question

How many Liters of 18 M H2SO4 are needed to make 0.5 L of 1.5 M H2SO4

Answer 1

Answer:

0.04 L

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Concentration of stock solution (C1) = 18M

Volume of stock solution needed (V1) =?

Concentration of diluted solution (C2) = 1.5M

Volume of diluted solution (V2) = 0.5L

The volume of the stock solution needed can be obtain by using the dilution formula.

This is illustrated below:

C1V1 = C2V2

18 x V1 = 1.5 x 0.5

Divide both side by 18

V1 = (1.5 x 0.5)/18

V1 = 0.04L

Therefore, the volume of the stock solution needed is 0.04L.
