175 mL of a 1.6 M solution of KCl is diluted to a new volume of 1.0 L. What is the new concentration of the solution?
a. .13 M KCI
b. .28 M KCI
c. .85 M KCI
d. 1.1 M KCI

Respuesta :

Answer:

b. .28 M KCI

Explanation:

Use the dilution formula.

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

C₂ = C₁V₁/V₂

C₂ = 1.6*0.175 / 1.0

C₂ = 0.28

The new concentration of the solution of KCl which is diluted to a new volume of 1.0 L is  0.28 M KCI.

What is concentration?

Concentration is the abundance of substance or constituent divided by the volume of the mixture.

 

By the dilution formula

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

C₂ = C₁V₁/V₂

The concentration is 1.6 M

The volume of KCl is 0.175

The new volume v2 is 1.0 l

Putting the values in the equation

C₂ = 1.6 × 0.175 / 1.0

C₂ = 0.28

Thus, the correct option is b. 0.28 M KCI.
