Using the molar mass given, convert this amount to grams.
mass = 0.1875 mol * (97.994 g/mol) = 18.37 grams H3PO4

b. M1*V1 = M2*V2
w here: M1 = 0.25; V1 = ??; M2 = 2.5; V2 = 50 mL = 0.050 L
Solvig for V1:
0.25 * V1 = 2.5 * 0.050
V1 = 0.50 L

2. First convert the given mass of NaOH to volume (in mL) using the density of NaOH
Volume = 43 g * (1 mL/2.13 g) = 20.19 mL

Volume % = (volume of solute / volume of solution) * 100%
Volume % = (20.19 mL/120 mL) * 100% = 16.8 %

b. Volume % = volume of NaOH/ total volume
0.10 = 20.19 mL/total volume
Solving for total volume yields:

, Part 1: based on the density of NAOH =2.1g/mL

then calculate the volume of 21g NaOHx(1mL/2.1g)=10 mL

so the percent volume is defined as

% volume = (Volume of Solute/volume of solution) x 100

so w e have % volume = (10mL/120mL)x100=8.3%

Part 2: you cannot prepare 10 % (volume) from the above solution (8.3%)
because the final solution is more concentrated than the initial
