Answer:

82.0 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Concentration of concentrated acid (C₁): 12.2 M
  • Volume of concentrated acid (V₁): ?
  • Concentration of dilute acid (C₂): 1.00 M
  • Volume of dilute acid (V₂): 1.00 L

Step 2: Calculate the required volume of the concentrated acid

We want to prepare a dilute solution from a concentrated one. We can calculate the volume of the concentrated acid using the dilution rule.

C₁ × V₁ = C₂ × V₂

V₁ = C₂ × V₂ / C₁

V₁ = 1.00 M × 1.00 L / 12.2 M = 0.0820 L = 82.0 mL
