8.00*10^-5 mol was diluted to 500ml what is the concentration in Mol/L?
Make sure all units are consistent. Convert ml to L first. (500ml = 0.5L). Then divide the mole by the volume which would result to 1.610^-4mol/L. This can also be expressed as interms of molarity (M). 1 M = 1 mol/L hence the final answer is 1.610^-4 M.
Answer : The concentration in mol/L is \(1.6\times 10^{-4}mol/L\)
Explanation : Given,
Moles = \(8.00\times 10^{-5}mol\)
Volume of solution = 500 mL
Formula used :
\(\text{Concentration}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}\)
Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:
\(\text{Concentration}=\frac{8.00\times 10^{-5}mole\times 1000}{500mL}=1.6\times 10^{-4}mol/L\)
Therefore, the concentration in mol/L is \(1.6\times 10^{-4}mol/L\)
