This is the corrected copy. An equal sign I typed as a - sign.
millimoles HCl = 6M x 51.2 = 3072.
mmoles NaOH solution (75 mL) = 3072.
M NaOH soln = mmoles/mL = 3072/75 = 4.096M That's the molarity of the diluted solution.
The diluted solution started out as 6M and it was diluted and is now 4.096M. Let x = mL water added to the 6M NaOH.
6M x [350/(350+x) = 4.096
I calculated x to be approximately 163 mL so the final volume would be about 350 + 163 or about 513 mL. You need to clean up the numbers and watch the number of significant figures but this is the way you do it.
An unknown amount of water is mixed with
350 mL of a 6 M solution of NaOH solution.
A 75 mL sample of the resulting solution is
titrated to neutrality with 51.2 mL of 6 M
HCl. Calculate the concentration of the diluted NaOH solution.
Answer in units of M
