Question

What volume of a 6.0m hcl solution is required to make 250.0 milliters of 1.5 m hcl

Answer 1

Answer : The volume for 6.0m HCl solution required = 62.5 ml

Solution : Given,

Initial concentration of HCl solution = 6.0m

Final concentration of HCl solution = 1.5m

Final volume of HCl solution = 250 ml

Initial volume of HCl solution = ?

Formula used for dilution is,

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$

where,

$M_1$ = initial concentration

$M_2$ = final concentration

$V_1$ = initial volume

$V_2$ = final volume

Now put all the given values in above formula, we get the initial volume of HCl solution.

$6.0m\times V_1=1.5m\times 250ml$

$V_1$ = 62.5 ml

Therefore, the volume for 6.0m HCl solution required = 62.5 ml
