Calculation of Concentrated Nitric Acid Solution
To prepare 250ml of 2.0 (M) HNO3, we need to calculate the amount of concentrated nitric acid solution required.
Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of HNO3 required
Molarity = Number of moles/Volume (in L)
2.0 (M) = Number of moles/0.25 L
Number of moles = 0.5 mol
Step 2: Calculate the mass of HNO3 required
Mass of HNO3 = Number of moles x Molar mass of HNO3
= 0.5 mol x 63 g/mol
= 31.5 g
Step 3: Calculate the volume of concentrated nitric acid solution required
The concentrated nitric acid is 70% HNO3, which means that 100 g of the solution contains 70 g of HNO3.
Let x be the volume of concentrated nitric acid solution required.
Mass of HNO3 in x ml of concentrated nitric acid solution = (70/100) x
Mass of HNO3 required = 31.5 g
(70/100) x = 31.5 g
x = (31.5 g x 100)/70
x = 45 g
Therefore, the amount of concentrated nitric acid solution required to prepare 250ml of 2.0 (M) HNO3 is 45g.
Answer: (b) 45g

Shayak ans is (b)45gm....2=(70*x*1000)/(100*250*63)where, x=required wt of HNO3...by solving x , we get x=45gm.....
