Chemistry Help?

An ammonia solution is made by diluting 150 mL of the concentrated commercial reagent until the final volume reaches 1000 mL. What is the final molar concentration?

If you can answer this, please show me how you did it, as I have quite a few questions like this. Thank you :)

    You didn't give a concentration for your concentrated commercial reagent, but using 14.5 M NH3:

    The common formula for dilutions is:

    M1V1 = M2V2

    As long as you know any three of these, you can always calculate the 4th value. Just plug in what you have an solve for the unknown:

    14.5 M (150 mL) = M2 (1000 mL)

    M2 = 14.5 (150) / 1000 = 2.18 M NH3
