Answer:


0.1501\ \text{M}

Step-by-step explanation:


68* 10^(-3)* 1.4=0.0952\ \text{mol}

Concentration in solution


(95.2)/(288)=0.3305\ \text{M}

After dilution


144* 0.3305=47.592\ \text{mmol}

Total volume
=144+173=317\ \text{mL}

Final concentration
=(47.592)/(317)=0.1501\ \text{M}

The final concentration is
0.1501\ \text{M}
