essential oils from a plant, 7.5 mL of benzene (C6H6, 78.11 g/mol) was mixed with 25.00 mL of hexane (C6H14, 86.18 g/mol). Both benzene and hexane are non-polar so they will homogeneously mix. The densities of benzene and hexane are 0.8765 g/mL and 0.6594 g/mL, respectively. The prepared Benzene-hexane solution in the problem was diluted with 17.5 mL of the solvent. What will be the final concentration of the solution

Show complete solution.

In an experiment involving the extraction of essential oils from a plant, 7.5 mL of benzene (C6H6, 78.11 g/mol) was mixed with 25.00 mL of hexane (C6H14, 86.18 g/mol). Both benzene and hexane are non-polar so they will homogeneously mix. The densities of benzene and hexane are 0.8765 g/mL and 0.6594 g/mL, respectively.

The prepared Benzene-hexane solution in the problem was diluted with 17.5 mL of the solvent. What will be the final concentration of the solution (in M)?
