A 5.95 M sugar solution is diluted from 100.0 mL to 812.5 mL. What is the concentration of the dilute solution

The concentration of the dilute solution is 0.7323 M

Explanation:

A solution is to prepare a solution from having the solute and the solvent initially separated, that is, it is the homogeneous mixture of two or more substances.

On the other hand, dilution is the procedure that is followed to prepare a less concentrated solution from a more concentrated one, and consists of adding more solvent to the solution.

In a dilution, the amount of solute does not change, but the volume of the solvent varies, that is, as more solvent is added, the concentration of the solute decreases because the volume (and weight) of the solution increases.

In a dilution it is fulfilled:

Ci*Vi = Cf*Vf

where:

In this case:

Replacing:

5.95 M* 0.1 L= Cf* 0.8125 L

Solving:

Cf= 0.7323 M

The concentration of the dilute solution is 0.7323 M
