Answer:

0.0496 L

Explanation:

You are diluting the LiNO₃ solution, so you can use the dilution formula.

c₁V₁ = c₂V₂ Divide each side by c₁

V₁ = V₂ × c₂/c₁

c₁ = 4.13 mol·L⁻¹; V₁ =?

c₂ = 1.05 mol·L⁻¹; V₂ = 195 mL Calculate V₁

V₁ = 195 × 1.05/4.13

V₁ = 195 × 0.2542

V₁ = 49.6 mL Convert to litres

V₁ = 49.6 × 1/1000

V₁ = 0.0496 L
