you have 1-5 ml of 0.140 M HCl solution and you want to dilute it to exactly 0.100 M. How much water should you add?
before dilution after dilution
M1 = 0.14M M2 = 0.1M
V1 = 15ml V2 =
M1V1 = M2V2
V2 = M1V1/M2
= 0.14*15/0.1 = 21ml
the volume of water added = V2-V1
= 21-15 = 6ml >>>>answer
1-5 ml is taken as 15ml
