Answer:

volume required = 50 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

The concentration of a substance is the quantity of solute present in a given quantity of solution.

In an aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid, the concentration is the number of moles of HCl present in a certain volume (which we are calculating) of solution.

we can write an expression for this:

c = n/V, where c = concentration, n = moles, and V = volume in L.

Rearranging this formula, we get:

V = n/c.

Therefore, V = 0.6 / 12.0 = 0.05 L or 50 mL
