Question
Chapter 15, Problem 5STP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The concentration of solution after mixing is to be calculated.
Concept introduction:
When two solutions of different molarities are mixed then the resulting solution has concentration in between the concentration of solutions being mixed.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 5STP
B
Explanation of Solution
The concentration of one solution is 2 M and other is 4 M. if they are mixed in equal ratio then resulting solution will have 3 M concentration. But because volume of 4 M solution is much more than 2 M solution, concentration of solution could be 3.8 M.
Conclusion
Option A is incorrect because volume of 4 M solution is much more than 2 M solution.
Options C and D are incorrect because concentration of resulting solution can’t exceed 4 M concentration on dilution.
