Question

Suppose you have a concentrated solution (S1) with a concentration equal to 1 M. You use their solution to make more dilute solutions S2-S6. Complete the following table, which describes the solution process. NOTE: Not all of the solutions are diluted S1; some are made from solutions that are derived from S1. The equation C₁V₁ = C₂V₂ should be used as a starting point for calculation. You can assume all volumes are additive. S2 is shown as an example.

Solution	Volume (mL) of concentrated solution	Volume of solvent	Total Volume	Dilution with respect to S1 (v/v)	Concentration
S1	-	-	-	-	1 M
S2	10 mL of S1	40 mL	50 mL	1/5	(0.20)
S3			100 mL		(0.40)
S4	5 mL of S2	35 mL
S5	10 mL of S1			1/2
S6	20 mL of S1		1.0 L

Answer 1

Volume of solvent = total volume - volume of concentrated solution
