Enter your answer in the provided box. Muriatic acid, an industrial grade of concentrated HCl, is used to clean masonry and cement. Its concentration is 11.7 M. For routine use, a diluted solution of 3.50 M is prepared. How many milliliters of 3.50 M muriatic acid solution contain 32.8 g of HCl

257 mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Step 2: Calculate the moles (n) corresponding to 32.8 g of HCl

The molar mass of HCl is 36.46 g/mol.

32.8 g × 1 mol/36.46 g = 0.900 mol

Step 3: Calculate the volume (V) of solution required

We will use the following expression.

C = n/V

V = n/C

V = 0.900 mol/(3.50 mol/L)

V = 0.257 L = 257 mL
