Select an option to attempt
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation
Dilution using:Given: 10 mL of 10 M solution mixed with 990 mL solvent.Total final volume = 10 + 990 = 1000 mL = 1 LApplying the dilution equation:Alternatively: Dilution factor =, so concentration decreases 100-fold:.Answer: 0.1 M (Option 2).
