Question

Sample of 200mls of 0.5 sulphuric acid,was asked to produce 1.2M of the new solution.Calculate the volume of the new solution​

Answer 1

Answer: The volume of the new solution​ is 83.33 mL.

Explanation:

Given: $V_{1}$ = 200 mL,    $M_{1}$ = 0.5 M

$V_{2}$ = ?,             $M_{2}$ = 1.2 M

Formula used to calculate the volume of new solution is as follows.

$M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}$

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}\\0.5 M \times 200 mL = 1.2 M \times V_{2}\\V_{2} = 83.33 mL$

Thus, we can conclude that volume of the new solution​ is 83.33 mL.
