We can use the formula M1V1 = M2V2 to find the volume of the 2M NaCl stock solution needed to prepare 100 mL of 0.15M NaCl solution.
M1 = 2M (the concentration of the stock solution)
V1 = unknown (the volume of stock solution we need to use)
M2 = 0.15M (the desired concentration of the final solution)
V2 = 100mL (the volume of the final solution)
Plugging in the values, we get:
2M x V1 = 0.15M x 100mL
Simplifying, we get:
V1 = (0.15M x 100mL) / 2M
V1 = 7.5mL
Therefore, we need to use 7.5 mL of the 2M NaCl stock solution to prepare 100 mL of 0.15 M NaCl solution.
The correct answer is option D: 7.5 mL.
