Answer :
Answer:
437.5 mL
Explanation:
Concentration (c) = Moles (n) / Volume of solution (liters)
C = n / V
rearrange the formula to find out how many moles you need in the final solution.
n (moles) = concentration (c) x Volume (V) ( in liters)
Convert your mL into L. 1500mL is 1.5L
n = 3.5 moles/liter x 1.5 liters (the liters cancel each other out)
n = 5.25 moles
Now use the same formula to calculate the volume you need to make the final solution based on the concentration of the original.
c = n/V or V = n / c
V = 5.25 moles / 12 moles/liter here the moles cancel out
V = 0.4375 L
convert back to mL
V = 437.5 mL
