Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12
If 500 mL of a 5 M solution is diluted to 1500 mL, what will be the molarity of the solution obtained?
A
1.5 M
B
1.66 M
C
0.017 M
D
1.59 M
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
Using the dilution formula M₁V₁ = M₂V₂, where M₁ = 5 M, V₁ = 500 mL, V₂ = 1500 mL, we find M₂ = (5 × 500) / 1500 = 1.66 M.
