Experimental sucrose solution (final concentration): 30%, 15%, 3%
Amount of 30% stock sucrose solution needed: 5 mL, 2.5 mL, 0.5 mL
Amount of water needed: 0 mL, 2.5 mL, 4.5 mL
12. Make an additional 200 mL of 15% sucrose solution in Beaker 1 by mixing the 30% stock solution with water. Use the following dilution equation to solve for the necessary amount of stock solution.
M1V1 = M2V2
Where:
- V1 = Needed volume of stock solution
- M1 = Sucrose concentration of stock solution = 30%
- V2 = Desired volume of Beaker 1 solution = 200mL
- M2 = Sucrose concentration of Beaker 1 solution = 15%
After solving for V1, figure out the how much water is needed to bring the total volume in Beaker 1 to 200mL. Record your calculated volume below.
