Question

A chemist wants to make 4,952 mL of a solution with a concentration of 1.65. Howmany liters of a 11.10 solution should be used to make this solution?

Answer 1

1) List known values

V2: 4952 mL

C2: 1.65

C1: 11.10

V1: ?

2) Set the equation

`C1V1=C2V2`

3) Plug in values en solve for V1.

`(11.10)V1=(1.65)(4952mL)`
`V1=((1.65)(4952mL))/(11.10)=736.11mL`

736.11 mL of solution should be used.
