Answer:
Volume of water added = 148.4 mL
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
Initial volume = 424 mL
Initial molarity = 0.189 M
Final molarity = 0.140 M
Volume of water added = ?
Solution:
Formula:
M₁V₁ = M₂V₂
0.189 M×424 mL = 0.140 M×V₂
V₂ = 0.189 M×424 mL /0.140 M
V₂ = 80.136 M.mL / 0.140 M
V₂ = 572.4 mL
Final volume of solution is 572.4 mL.
Volume of water added = Final volume - initial volume
Volume of water added = 572.4 mL - 424 mL
Volume of water added = 148.4 mL
