How many milliliters of 5.50 M H2SO4 must you use to prepare 500.ml of 0.2 M sulfuric acid solution? I know I need to use the formula M1V1 = M2V2 but I'm not sure how to calculate the problem?

1 answer

M1 = 5.50 M
V1 = ?? solve for this. The answer will be in mL.
M2 = 0.2 M
V2 = 500 mL

Plug and chug. Your statement MAY mean you don't know how to solve the equation once it is set up. If that is the problem, tell me what you don't understand about the math and I can go from there.
