Step 1

Hi Haizo, let's look at how to prepare a diluted sodium hydroxide solution from a more concentrated stock solution.

Preparing a 300 mL 0.1 M NaOH Solution

2
Step 2

First, let's identify what we know. We want to end up with three hundred milliliters of zero point one molar solution. This is our final volume and final molarity.

Given Information

- Required Concentration ($M_2$): $0.1\text{ M}$

- Required Volume ($V_2$): $300\text{ mL}$

3
Step 3

We are starting with a stock solution that has a concentration of two molar. We need to find out how much of this stock solution we should use.

- Stock Concentration ($M_1$): $2\text{ M}$

4
Step 4

To find this volume, we use the dilution formula: M one times V one equals M two times V two.

$$M_1 V_1 = M_2 V_2$$

Step 5

Now, let's plug in the numbers. Two molar times V one equals zero point one molar times three hundred milliliters.
