20. What volume of 0.350M KMnO4 solution must be diluted to prepare 600. mL of 0.150M KMnO4 solution?

25.7 mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Initial volume (V₁): ?Initial concentration (C₁): 0.350 MFinal volume (V₂): 600 mLFinal concentration (C₂): 0.150 M

Step 2: Calculate the volume of the initial solution

We have a concentrated solution and we want to prepare a diluted one. We can calculate the initial volume using the dilution rule.

C₁ × V₁ = C₂ × V₂

V₁ = C₂ × V₂ / C₁

V₁ = 0.150 M × 600 mL / 0.350 M

V₁ = 25.7 mL

the catch is that the top numbers are atomic masses the bottom numbers are the numbers of protons and electrons in an uncharged atom. they are the number of that atoms as you would find them on the periodic table. further, the numbers on the left are used to determine the missing numbers on the right

so here we go

atomic mass

239 + 1 = y + 134 + 3 combine like terms

240 = y + 137             subtract 137 from both terms

240 - 137 = y

103 = y

atomic number

94 = z +54 + 0

94 = z + 54               subtract 54 from both sides.

40 = z

answer
