Standard hydrochloric acid (HCl) reagent is 12.0 M. Describe how to prepare 500 mL of 0.100 M HCl.
Molarity = (mass/molarmass)*(1000/V in mL)
According to dilution formula
M1V1 = M2V2
12.0*V1 = 0.100*500
V1 = 4.17 mL
Intially we have to take 4.17 mL of 12.0 M HCl solution and is diluted to 500 ml solution by adding water.
Volume of water added = 500 - 4.17
= 495.83 mL
