we can use the dilution formula to find the volume of the diluted solution to be prepared first c1v1 = c2v2 where c1 - concentration and v1 - volume of the concentrated solution c2 - concentration and v2 - volume of the diluted solution substituting the values 6.00 M x 175 mL = 2.00 M x V V = 525 mL volume of diluted solution is 525 mL then volume of 6.00 M HCl acid taken is 175 mL therefore volume of water to be added is - 525 - 175 = 350 mL 350 mL of water should be added
