You have a large amount of 8.00 M stock solution. You need 1.60 L of 3.00 M solution for an experiment. How would you prepare the desired solution without wasting any stock solution?

A.) Start with 1.60 L of water. Add stock solution until you reach a total volume of 2.56 L .

B.) Start with 0.600 L of the stock solution. Add water until you reach a total volume of 1.60 L .

C.) Start with 1.60 L of the stock solution. Add water until you reach a total volume of 4.27 L .

D.) Mix 0.800 L each of stock solution and water.
