250ml of a calcium carbonate solution contains 2.5grams of CaCO3 .if 1...
Calculation of Concentration of Resultant Solution
Given Data
- Volume of CaCO3 solution = 250ml
- Mass of CaCO3 in solution = 2.5grams
- Volume of diluted solution = 1 litre
- Volume of solution taken for dilution = 10ml
Calculation
To calculate the concentration of the resultant solution, we need to first calculate the concentration of the original solution.
The concentration of the original solution can be calculated using the formula:
Concentration = (mass of solute/volume of solution) x 1000
Substituting the given values, we get:
Concentration of original solution = (2.5/250) x 1000 = 10g/L
Now, we can use the formula for dilution to calculate the concentration of the resultant solution.
The formula for dilution is:
Concentration of resultant solution = (Concentration of original solution x Volume of original solution)/(Volume of original solution + Volume of diluent)
Substituting the given values, we get:
Concentration of resultant solution = (10 x 10)/(10 + 1000) = 0.099g/L
Answer
The concentration of the resultant solution is 0.099g/L.
