We are given with a 2.5 M stock solution of acetic acid and we are required to calculate the volume of the solution needed to prepare 100 milliliters of 0.5 M acetic acid solution. To solve this, we acquire the formula <span>Mconcentrated*Vconcentrated = Mdilute*Vdilute. That is 2.5 M*x=0.5M*100 ml where x is the volume of 2.5 M needed. x is equal to 20 ml. So we need 20 ml of 2.5 M solution and dilute to 100 ml using water as diluent.</span>
Accidental fires, explosions, and chemical and gas leaks are common at refineries. Such accidents cause higher than usual amounts of pollution, which may result in more acute exposure to pollutants and greater health impacts.
