Question

If 0.950 L of 5.5 M standard solution is diluted to a new volume of 3.25 L, what is the molarity?

A. 1.78 M
B. 18.82 M
C. 0.62 M
D. 1.61 M

Answer 1

1.61 M

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of moles in the solution (Doesn't change after dilution)

= 5.5M * 0.950L = 5.225 mol

New molarity = 5.225mol / 3.25L = 1.61 M
