Answer:


V_2=45.7mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the equation to deal with dilution process involves the initial and final concentration and volume:


C_1V_1=C_2V_2

Thus, given the initial and final concentrations and the initial volume, we can write:


V_2=(C_1V_1)/(C_2) =(0.50M*147.1mL)/(1.61M)\\\\V_2=45.7mL

Best regards.
