The new concentration = 2 M
Dilution is a process of decreasing the concentration of a solution by adding a number of solvents
Can be formulated
M₁V₁=M₂V₂
M₁ = Initial Molarity
V₁ = Initial volume
M₂ = Final Molarity (after dilution)
V₂ = Final volume (after dilution)
V₁=5 L
V₂=10 L
M₁=4 M
The new concentration(M₂) :
[tex]\tt M_2=\dfrac{V_1.M_1}{V_2}\\\\M_2=\dfrac{5\times 4}{10}\\\\M_2=2~M[/tex]
