0.16 M is the concentration of a solution prepared by diluting 20.0 ml of 2.00 M NaCl to 250.0 ml.
Explanation:
Data given:
Initial volume of NaCl, V1 = 20 ml
initial molarity of the NaCl solution = 2M
Final volume of the NaCl solution = 250 ml
final molarity of the diluted solution = ?
from the information given, the formula for dilution used is:
Minitial Vinitial = Mfinal Vfinal
putting the values in the rearranged equation:
V final = 
V final = 
Mfinal = 0.16 M
Thus it can be seen that when a 20 ml solution having molarity of 2M is diluted to 250 ml the molarity decreases to 0.16 M.
Answer : The water's temperature change will be, 
Explanation : Given,
Density of water = 0.998 g/mL
Volume of water = 
(conversion used : 1 L = 1000 mL)
Specific heat of water = 
Heat absorbed = 
(conversion used : 1 kJ = 1000 J)
First we have to determine the mass of water.


Now we have to calculate the change in temperature of water.
Formula used :

where,
Q = heat absorbed by water
m = mass of water
= specific heat of water
= change in temperature
Now put all the given value in the above formula, we get:


Therefore, the water's temperature change will be, 
Answer:
I am not quite sure about it, i think it is because of the fact that mercury has weight, when it is filled with mercury, it will expand a little bit.
