Answer:

237.8L of water would need to be added.

Explanation:

The first thing to do is to identify that the equation to be used is M1V1=M2V2. (This equation works because it turns everything into moles which can then be compared).

Then figure out what information you have and what is being found. In this case:

M1 = 54.7 M

V1 = 1092 mL = 1.092 L

M2 = 0.25 M

V2 = unknown

Then solve the equation for whatever you are trying to find.

M1V1=M2V2

V2=M1V1/M2

Now you need to plug everything in.

V2=(54.7M*1.091L)/0.25M

V2=238.93L

That means that the solution needs a volume of 238.7L to gain a molarity of 0.25M but the starting solution already had a volume of 1.092 L meaning that to find the amount of solvent that needs to be added you just subtract the starting volume by the volume that the solution needs to be.

238.93L - 1.091L = 237.8L

Therefore the answer is that 237.8L needs to be added to a 1.092L 54.7M NaCl solution to make the concentration 0.25M.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
