Answer:
The answer to your question is 1.25 M
Explanation:
Data
Molarity 1 = ?
Volume 1 = 60 ml
Molarity 2 = 0.5 M
Volume 2 = 150 ml
Process
1.- Write the dilution formula
Molarity 1 x Volume 1 = Molarity 2 x Volume 2
-Solve for Molarity 1
Molarity 1 = Molarity 2 x Volume 2 / Volume 1
-Substitution
Molarity 1 = (0.5)(150) / 60
-Simplification
Molarity = 75 / 60
-Result
Molarity = 1.25 M
