what volume of a 5M H2 SO4 solution should be added to a 150 mL of 1. M H2SO4 solution to obtain a solution of sulphuric acid of molarity 2.5?
Answers
Answer:
V = 90.
Explanation:(5 × V) + (1 × 150) = (150 + V) × 2.5
Solving Above We'll Get,
5V + 150 = 375 + 2.5V
2.5V = 225
∴V = 90
SO, ADDING 90ml. OF 5M H2SO4, TO 150ml. OF 1M H2SO4 WE GET FINAL MIXTURE 250ml. OF 2.5M H2SO4.

Given:
A 150 mL of 1. M H2SO4 solution.
To Find:
The volume of a 5M H2 SO4 solution should be added to a 150 mL of 1. M H2SO4 solution to obtain a solution of sulphuric acid of molarity 2.5.
Solution:
To find the volume of a 5M H2 SO4 solution should be added to a 150 mL of 1. M H2SO4 solution we will follow the following steps:
As we know,
The formula used for finding the Molarity or Normality of the resulting solution is given by:
N1V2 + N2V2 = N3V3
n1M1V2 + n2M2V2 = n3M3V3
Here,
N = normality
n = number of electrons or ions exchanged which is equal to 2 for H2SO4 because H2SO4-----> 2H+ + (SO4)2-
V is the volume used.
2×5× V1 + 2×150×1 = 2×2.5× (150+V1)
5×V1 + 150 = 375 + 2.5V1
2.5× V1 = 225
V1 = 90ml
Henceforth, the volume of a 5M H2 SO4 solution should be added to a 150 mL of 1. M H2SO4 solution to obtain a solution of sulphuric acid of molarity 2.5 is 90 ml.
