Answer:
The new concentration is 0.125 M.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
Initial volume V₁ = 125.0 mL
Initial molarity M₁ = 0.150 M
New volume V₂ = 25 mL +125 mL = 150 mL
New concentration M₂ = ?
Solution:
M₁V₁ = M₂V₂
0.150 M × 125 mL = M₂ × 150 mL
M₂ = 0.150 M × 125 mL / 150mL
M₂ = 18.75 M.mL/150 mL
M₂ = 0.125 M
The new concentration is 0.125 M.
