Chemistry Question on Solutions

When a concentrated solution is diluted by adding more water, molarity of the solution remains unchanged. Product of moles of a solute and volume is equal to the molarity.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false

Answer

If both assertion and reason are false

Explanation

Solution

Molarity equation is written as M1V1=M2V2M_{1} V_{1}=M_{2} V_{2} thus if the V2V_{2} changes M2M_{2} also changes. Molarity = moles of solute  volume of solution in litre =\frac{\text { moles of solute }}{\text { volume of solution in litre }}
