Question

To what volume would you need to dilute 200 mL of a 5.85M solution of Ca(OH)2 to make it a 1.95M solution?

Answer 1

Answer: 600 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

M₁ = 5.85 m

M₂ = 1.95 m

V₁ = 200 mL

V₂ = ?

Now from the dilution law;

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

so we substitute

5.85 × 200 = 1.95 × V₂

1170 = 1.95V₂

V₂ = 1170 / 1.95

V₂ = 600 mL

Therefore final volume is 600 mL
