A student is given a stock solution of 1.00 M NaCl in water. They are asked to make 5 mL of 0.0500 M NaCl. How much of the stock solution should they dilute to 5 mL to make the correct concentration?
a) 10.0 mL
b) 55.5 mL
c) 1.00 mL
d) 35.3 mL
e) 27.8 mL

Answer:

The answer to your question is None of your answers is correct, maybe the data are wrong.

Explanation:

Data

Concentration 1 = C1 = 1 M

Volume 2 = 5 ml

Concentration 2 = 0.05 M

Volume 1 = x

To solve this problem use the dilution formula

             Concentration 1 x Volume 1 = Concentration 2 x Volume 2

Solve for Volume 1

              Volume 1 = (Concentration 2 x Volume 2)/ Concentration 1

Substitution

              Volume 1 = (0.05 x 5) / 1

Simplification

              Volume 1 = 0.25/1

Result

               Volume 1 = 0.25 ml
