added enough water to dissolve the glucose by swirling, then carefully added additional water until the 100L.- mark on the neck of the flask was reached. The flask was then shaken until the solution was uniform. A 50.0mL- sample of this glucose solution was diluted to 0.500L . How many grams of glucose are in 100.mL of the final solution?
When 16.5 g of glucose dissolves to form 100 L of solution :
Concentration = (16.5 g) / (100 L) = 0.165 g/L
When 50.0 mL of the above solution is diluted to 0.500 L (500 mL), dilution factor is 50/500.
Concentration of final solution = (0.165 g/L) × (50/500) = 0.0165 g/L
Mass of glucose in 100 mL (0.100 L) of the final solution = (0.0165 g/L) × (0.100 L) = 0.00165 g
