If 500 ml of a 5m solution is diluted to 1500ml what will be the molarity of the solution obtained

If 500 ml of solution is diluted to 1500 ml of solution.

The morality can be calculated by the formula M1V1 = M2V2

Where as M1= 5M  V1= 500  V2= 1500  M2= ?

Here we have to find M2.

By pitting values in the formula

5*500= 1500*M2     M2= 2500\1500

         = 1.66M

Hence the morality is 1.66M

If 500 mL of a 5 M solution is diluted to 1500 mL, what will be the molarity of the solution obtained?

1.66 M

Explanation:

The relation between molarity and volume is given as,

M1V1 = M2V2

On substituting the value in the above equation, the pol can be calculated as

5 × 500 mL = M2 × 1500 mL

M2 = `(5 xx 500)/1500` = 1.66 M
