of a solution is diluted to . What is the new molarity (in M)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. 1
- Step 1: For a solution dilution, the total amount of solute remains constant: , where is molarity and is volume.
- Step 2: Solve for the final molar concentration: .
- Step 3: Substitute the given values , , and : .
Answer
1.
Why not the others: 100 multiplies volume and molarity without dilution scaling; 5 assumes a twofold dilution factor; 10 assumes no dilution occurred.
