Question

An industrial-strength pipe cleaner has a molarity (M) ) of 7.0 a 0.60 liter container. To be safely used on the pipes in a home, the molarity is decreased to 2.5 M. What is the solution's new volume?

Answer 1

1.68L

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Initial Molarity (Mi) = 7M

Initial volume (Vi) 0.6L

Final Molarity (Mf) = 2.5M

Final Volume (Vf) =.?

Step 2:

Determination of the final volume of the solution.

This can be achieved as shown below:

MiVi = MfVf

Divide both side by Mf

Vf = MiVi /Mf

Vf = 7 x 0.6 / 2.5

Vf = 1.68L

Therefore, the new volume of the solution is 1.68L
