NaOH (sodium hydroxide) C1=30%, V1=500 ml, C2=5%, V2=???

Question

Solve the following problems. (You need not compute the amount of diluent)

Answer 1

Hello Ally

 

To solve this question, you would use the dilution equation, which is

 

C₁ V₁ = C₂ V₂

 

Rearrange to solve for V₂

 

V₂ = C₁ V₁ / C₂

 

 

     = 30% x 500 mL / 5%

 

     = 3000 mL
