It was a spring morning of April 16, 1947, was a morning that many citizens of Texas City thought was the end of the world. The French Liberty ship, SS Grandcamp, bearing a cargo of ammonium nitrate fertilizer (over 2300 tons) destined for war-torn Europe, caught fire in the Texas City harbor. The bright ... A little after 9.00 a.m., the Texas City Disaster (as it is popularly known) occurred as the ship Grandcamp exploded.

How much water would need to be added to 1092 mL of a 54.7 M NaCl solution to make a 0.25 M solution?
babunello [35]

Answer:

237.8L of water would need to be added.

Explanation:

The first thing to do is to identify that the equation to be used is M1V1=M2V2. (This equation works because it turns everything into moles which can then be compared).

Then figure out what information you have and what is being found. In this case:

M1 = 54.7 M

V1 = 1092 mL = 1.092 L

M2 = 0.25 M

V2 = unknown

Then solve the equation for whatever you are trying to find.

M1V1=M2V2

V2=M1V1/M2

Now you need to plug everything in.

V2=(54.7M*1.091L)/0.25M

V2=238.93L

That means that the solution needs a volume of 238.7L to gain a molarity of 0.25M but the starting solution already had a volume of 1.092 L meaning that to find the amount of solvent that needs to be added you just subtract the starting volume by the volume that the solution needs to be.

238.93L - 1.091L = 237.8L

Therefore the answer is that 237.8L needs to be added to a 1.092L 54.7M NaCl solution to make the concentration 0.25M.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
