Verified Answer :

M= mol/L
0.5M*0.25L= 0.125 moles
0.125 moles/0.840L =0.15M

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

  \(M_{1}\) = 0.50 M,                \(V_{1}\) = 250 mL

  \(M_{1}\) = ? ,                         \(V_{1}\) = 840 mL

Therefore, calculate the molarity using the relation as follows.

               \(M_{1} \times V_{1}\) = \(M_{2} \times V_{2}\)

                  0.50 M × 250 mL = \(M_{2}\) × 840 mL

                 \(M_{2} = \frac{0.50 M \times 250 mL}{840 mL}\)

                                   = 0.148 M

                                   = 0.15 M (approximately)

Thus, we can conclude that the molarity of the resulting solution is 0.15 M.
