If 5.0 cm^3 of 0.200 mol dm^-3 Na2CO3 was diluted to 250 cm^3 solution, what would be the concentration of the resulting solution?

  • A. 0.004 mol dm^-3Correct
  • B. 0.020 mol dm^-3
  • C. 0.200 mol dm^-3
  • D. 0.400 mol dm^-3

Explanation

Using the dilution law: C1V1=C2V2. C1=0.2M, V1=5.0cm^3, V2=250cm^3. C2=(0.2x5)/250=0.004 M.
