Answer 1

Answer: There are 20 milliliters of 1.0 M HCl is required to be diluted to make 200 mL of a 0.1 M solution.

Explanation:

Given: $M_{1}$ = 1.0 M,    $V_{1}$ = ?

$M_{2}$ = 0.1 M,    $V_{2}$ = 200 mL

Formula used is as follows.

$M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}$

Substitute values into the above formula as follows.

$M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}\\1.0 M \times V_{1} = 0.1 M \times 200 mL\\V_{1} = \frac{0.1 M \times 200 mL}{1.0 M}\\= 20 mL$

Thus, we can conclude that there are 20 milliliters of 1.0 M HCl is required to be diluted to make 200 mL of a 0.1 M solution.
