Answer:
Take approx 41.7 mL of 12-M HCl in a 1.00-L flask and fill the rest of the volume with distilled water.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, for the dilution process from concentrated 12-M hydrochloric acid to 1.00 L of the diluted 0.50M hydrochloric acid, the volume of concentrated HCl you must take is computed by considering that the moles remain constant for all dilution processes as shown below:
Which can also be written in terms of concentrations and volumes:
Thus, solving for the initial volume or aliquot that must be taken from the 12-M HCl, we obtain:
It means that you must take approx 41.7 mL of 12-M HCl in a 1.00-L flask and fill the rest of the volume with distilled water for such preparation.
Best regards.
