You have a solution of NaOH with a concentration of 5.0M. You take 250.0 mL of the 5.0M solution and and add water until you have 500.0 mL of diluted solution. What is the concentration of the diluted solution to two significant figures?

organisms are more likely to be more preserved in mud than sand because mud is moist and wet, while sand is very dry.

given:

mass of na = 115 g

excess cl2

to determine:

mass of nacl produced

explanation:

given reaction is-

2na(s) + cl2(g) → 2nacl(s)

since cl2 is in excess, na will be the limiting reagent

as per the reaction stoichiometry na: nacl = 1: 1

i.e. moles of na reacted = moles of nacl formed

now, # moles of na = mass of na/atomic mass

                                  = 115 g/23 g.mol-1 = 5 moles

therefore, moles of nacl = 5

molar mass of nacl = 58 g/mol

mass of nacl = 5 moles * 58 g.mol-1 = 290 g

ans: amount of nacl produced = 290 g

im not exactly sure but i think its b!

the answer is b. dilution
