Water was added to 175mL of a KOH solution until the volume was 250 mL and the molarity was 0.315 M. What was the molarity of the initial concentrated solution?

0.45 M

Explanation:

Now we need to make use of the dilution formula

C1V1= C2V2

C1= initial molarity of the solution which is the unknown

V1 = initial volume of the solution which is 175 ml

C2 =final molarity of the solution= 0.315 M

V2= final volume of solution= 250 ml

From C1V1= C2V2 we have;

C1= C2V2/V1

C1= 0.315 × 250/ 175

C1= 0.45 M

explanation: it gains negative electrons, therefore becoming negatively charged. as charge cannot be created, nor destroyed, only transferred, this leaves the wool positive. now that they have opposite charges, the two items attract.
