Question

Calculate the Concentration of dye in a total of 250mL in the volumetric flask.

1. The concentration of the stock dye that will be provided is located in the lab handout posted. 3.54*10-4 M. 5.00 mL of the concentrated stock dye solution Obtain approximately 10 mL of the concentrated stock dye solution3. Use a volumetric pipette to transfer 5.00 mL of the concentrated stock dye solution into a 250 mL volumetric flask and dilute up to the mark with deionized water.

2. The concentration of dye in the 5 prepared standards. You will use the previously calculated dye concentration above to calculate the standards' concentrations.

Volume from volumetric flask (mL)

  Volume of deionized water (mL)

Volume from volumetric flask (mL)

8 2 6 4 4 6 2 8 0 10

Explanation / Answer

Q.1: Given the volume of concentrated stock dye solution taken, Vi = 5.00 mL

concentration of concentrated stock dye solution, Mi = 3.54*10-4 M

Final volume, Vf = 250 mL

Applying law of dilution, MiVi = MfVf

=> Mf = MiVi / Vf = (3.54*10-4 M x 5.00 mL) / 250 mL

=> Mf = 7.08*10-6 M (answer)

Hence the concentration of dye in the 250 mL volumetric flask is 7.08*10-6 M.

Q.2: Standard-1: Applying law of dilution

MiVi = MfVf

=> 7.08*10-6 M x 2 mL = Mf x 10 mL

=> Mf = 1.416*10-6 M (answer)

Standard-2: Applying law of dilution

MiVi = MfVf

=> 7.08*10-6 M x 4 mL = Mf x 10 mL

=> Mf = 2.832*10-6 M (answer)

Standard-3: Applying law of dilution

MiVi = MfVf

=> 7.08*10-6 M x 6 mL = Mf x 10 mL

=> Mf = 4.248*10-6 M (answer)

Standard-4: Applying law of dilution

MiVi = MfVf

=> 7.08*10-6 M x 8 mL = Mf x 10 mL

=> Mf = 5.664*10-6 M (answer)

Standard-5: Since no deionized water is added Mf = Mi = 7.08*10-6 M (answer)
