Answer:
The answer is 0.0698 M
Explanation:
The concentration was prepared by a serial dilution method.
The formula for the preparation I M1V1 = M2V2
M1= the concentration of the stock solution = 0.171 M
V1= volume of the stock solution taken = 200 mL
M2 = the concentration produced
V2 = the volume of the solution produced = 940 mL
Substitute these values in the formula
0.171 × 200 = 490 × M2
34.2 = 490 × M2
Make M2 the subject of the formula
M2 = 34.2/490
M2 = 0.069795
M2 = 0.0698 M ( 3 s.f)
The concentration of the Chemist's working solution to 3 significant figures is 0.0698M
