Answer:
225 mL of water must be added.
Explanation:
First we <u>calculate how many HCl moles are there in 516 mL of a 0.191 M solution</u>:
- 516 mL * 0.191 M = 98.556 mmol HCl
Now we use that number of moles (that remain constant during the <em>dilution process</em>) to <u>calculate the final volume of the 0.133 M solution</u>:
- 98.556 mmol / 0.133 M = 741 mL
We can <u>calculate the volume of water required</u> from the volume difference:
The choices can be found elsewhere and as follows:
A.) a definite shape and a definite volume
B.) a definite shape but no definite volume
C.) no definite shape and no definite volume
I believe the correct answer is option C. Two basic properties of the gas phase would be it has no definite shape and no definite volume. It takes the shape and volume of its container. Hope this answers the question.
