What volume of 12.1 M HCl must be diluted to prepare a 0.2500 M HCl solution with a volume of 2.000 L?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To dilute a solution, the formula $C_1V_1 = C_2V_2$ is used, where $C_1$ and $V_1$ are the concentration and volume of the initial solution, and $C_2$ and $V_2$ are the concentration and volume of the final solution. Plugging in the given values: $12.1 \, \text{M} \times V_1 = 0.2500 \, \text{M} \times 2.000 \, \text{L}$, solving for $V_1$ gives approximately 41.3 mL.
