Answer:
0.04 M
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial volume of solution (V1) = 25 cm³
Initial Molarity of solution (M1) = 0.4 M
Final volume of solution (V2) = 250 cm³
Final Molarity of solution (M2) =?
We can obtain the final Molarity of the solution by using the dilution formula as illustrated below:
M1V1 = M2V2
0.4 × 25 = M2 × 250
10 = M2 × 250
Divide both side by 250
M2 = 10/250
M2 = 0.04 M
Therefore, the resulting molarity of the diluted solution is 0.04 M
