The key formula for solving a dilution problem is M1V1=M2V2 (alternately, MAVA=MBVB)

where concentration is M (measured in Molars, a unite of concentration-->Molars=moles solute/Liters solution) and the volume of solution is V.

M1V1 represents the inital conditions (pre-dilution), and M2V2 denotes the final conditions (post-dilution).

Plug in the three values you know to find the fourth value, which you are solving for.

Ex.

750mLs of a 0.5 M NaC2H3O2 solution is diluted with 250mL of H2O. What is the new concentration of NaC2H3O2?

Answer:

(0.5M)x(.750L)=(MB)x(.750L+.250L)

0.375ML=(MB)x(1L)

MB=0.375M

What is the difference between solving a problem and analyzing a problem?

When you analyze a problem you look it over which is what analyzing means. You look over the problem and then you solve it. When you solve a problem you solve it and you use certain steps and solve it but of course everyone has there ways to solve a problem but some people have ways to solve it by just analysing it. That is the difference.

How can one determine the concentration after dilution?

To determine the concentration after dilution, use the formula: C1V1 C2V2. C1 is the initial concentration, V1 is the initial volume, C2 is the final concentration, and V2 is the final volume. Simply plug in the values and solve for C2 to find the concentration after dilution.


What is the equation of dilution?

The equation of dilution is expressed as ( C_1V_1 = C_2V_2 ), where ( C_1 ) is the initial concentration of the solution, ( V_1 ) is the initial volume, ( C_2 ) is the final concentration after dilution, and ( V_2 ) is the final volume after dilution. This equation is used to determine how to dilute a concentrated solution to achieve a desired concentration. By rearranging the equation, one can solve for any of the variables if the others are known.
