A solution that is 0.135 M is diluted to make 500.0 mL of a 0.0851 M solution. How many milliliters of the original solution were required? View Available Hint(s) A solution that is 0.135 M is diluted to make 500.0 mL of a 0.0851 M solution. How many milliliters of the original solution were required? 5.74 mL 0.315 mL 793 mL 315 mL

315mL

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Molarity of stock solution (M1) = 0.135 M

Volume of stock solution needed (V1) =?

Molarity of diluted solution (M2) = 0.0851 M

Volume of diluted solution (V2) = 500mL

The volume of the stock solution needed can be obtain as follow:

M1V1 = M2V2

0.135 x V1 = 0.0851 x 500

Divide both side by 0.135

V1 = (0.0851 x 500) / 0.135

V1 = 315mL

Therefore, the volume of the stock solution needed is 315mL
