13. When a solution is diluted, what is the relationship of the number of moles of solute in the more concentrated initial volume to the number of moles of solute in the less concentrated final volume? The ratio of the numbers of moles of solute is directly proportional to the ratio of the two volumes. The number of moles of solute in the more concentrated initial volume is always greater. The number of moles of solute in the less concentrated final volume is always smaller. The number of moles of solute in both solutions is the same.
14. You have separate solutions of HCl and H2SO4 with the same concentration in terms of molarity. You wish to neutralize a solution of NaOH. Which acid solution would require more volume (in mL) to neutralize the base? The HCl solution: B. The H2SO4 solution: C. You need to know the acid concentrations to answer this question. D. You need to know the volume and concentration of the NaOH solution: C and D.
