An analyst wants to convert 1 L HCl of pH = 1 to a solution of HCl of pH = 2 . The volume of water needed to do this dilution is _____ mL . (Nearest integer)
Correct answer
0
Step-by-step solution
The concentration of H + or say HCl in both the given solution is 10 – 1 and 10 – 2 mole L – 1 respectively. For the given amount of HCl the concentration depends over dilution hence M 1 V 1 = M 2 V 2 M 1 M 2 = V 2 V 1 10 - 1 10 - 2 = V 2 1 L V 2 = 10   L = 10000   mL ∆ V = 10000 - 1000   mL = 9000   mL
