How many Litres of stock HNO3 solution (16.0 M) is required to make 400.0 ml 2.0 M solution

0.6 M

Explanation:

We use the following equation to find the concentration of the diluted solution:

M1V1 = M2V2  

where M1V1 refers to the concentration and volume of the initial solution, respectively,  and M2V2  refers to the concentration and volume of the final solution, respectively.

In this case, we are trying to find the final concentartion, M2:

M2 = M1V1/V2 = (12.0 M * 0.025 L)/ 0.500 L) = 0.6 M

the molecules move in straight line until they collide with each other or with the walls of the container. collisions are perfectly elastic; when two molecules collide, they change their directions and kinetic energies, but the total kinetic energy is conserved.
