Answer:

1.08 M

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 45 mL

Initial concentration (C₁) = 6 M

Final volume (V₂) = 250 mL

Final concentration (C₂) =?

The final concentration of the solution can be obtained by using the dilution formula as illustrated below:

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

6 × 45 = C₂ × 250

270 = C₂ × 250

Divide both side by 250

C₂ = 270 / 250

C₂ = 1.08 M

Therefore, the final concentration of the solution is 1.08 M.
