Question

The concentration of dye in Solution A is 26.609 M. You have 13 mL of water at your disposal to make the dilutions. The solution is diluted twice, to make Solutions B and C. In the first dilution, 5 parts of Solution A is diluted with 12 parts water to make Solution B. In the second dilution, 7 parts of Solution B is diluted with 4 parts water to make Solution C. What is the concentration of dye in Solution C? Provide your response to three digits after the decimal.

Answer 1

Answer:

6,613 M

Explanation:

Dilution is the process of reducing the concentration of a solute in solution, mixing initial solution with more solvent.

The concentration of Solution B is:

23,881 M ×  = 9,552 M

Because the initial eight parts are diluted to 12+8 parts.

Thus, concentration of solution C is:

9,552 M ×  = 6,613 M
