Consider the process of diluting 1.2 M NH4Cl solution to prepare 1.4 L of a 0.25 M NH4Cl solution. Determine if each of the follow statement is True or False. (1) The dilution equation M1V1 = M2V2 is a balance of moles of the solute, which is NH4Cl in this question.

True the dilution formula is a balanced of mole of the solute..

Explanation:

M1V1 = M2V2

When M1= 1.2M, M2= 0.25M V2= 1.4L and V1= ?

Then V1= 0.25*1.4/1.2

= 0.29

This indicate that 0.29L of the 1.2M NH4Cl will be dilluted to 0.25M in 1.4L of the solution

The mole number of the solute remain constant
