25 cm of 1 mol/dm hydrochloric acid is diluted with water to a total volume of 1000 cm. What is the new concentration?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. 0.025 mol/dm
- Step 1: The amount of acid is unchanged: .
- Step 2: mol/dm.
Answer
0.025 mol/dm.
Why not the others: 40 mol/dm: it inverts the volume ratio. 0.001 mol/dm: it ignores the original volume. 0.975 mol/dm: it uses the volume of water added instead of the original volume.
