The molar concentration of the saline solution is 0.43 mol/L.
Check Your Solution
The units are correct and the answer correctly shows two significant digits. The
dilution of the original concentrated solution is correct and the change to mol/L
seems reasonable.

51. Practice Problem (page 386)
Suppose that you are given a stock solution of 1.50 mol/L ammonium sulfate,
(NH4)2SO4(aq).
What volume of the stock solution do you need to use to prepare each of the
following solutions?
a. 50.0 mL of 1.00 mol/L (NH4)2SO4(aq)
b. 2 × 102 mL of 0.800 mol/L (NH4)2SO4(aq)
c. 250 mL of 0.300 mol/L NH4
+
(aq)
What Is Required?
You need to calculate the initial volume, V1, of (NH4)2SO4(aq) stock solution
needed to prepare each given dilute solution.
