The label on a bottle of "organic" liquid fertilizer concentrate states that it contains 9.20 grams of phosphate per 100.0 ml and that 16.0 fluid ounces should be diluted with water to make 32.0 gallons of fertilizer to be applied to growing plants. what version of the dilution equation can be used to calculate the final phosphate concentration? express your answer in terms of vi, ci, and vf.

The final concentration of phosphate in the solution has been 0.36 g/L.

The dilution of the compound has been given as the formation of the working standard from the stock solution.

The volume of the phosphate to be diluted has been 16.0 fluid ounces. The volume, vi has been given in mL as follows:

The volume of the fertilizer vi containing phosphate has bee 473 mL.

The mass of phosphate in 100 0 mL has been 9.20 grams.

The mass of phosphate in 473 mL has been given as:

The mass of phosphate in  16.0 fluid ounce has been 43.516 g.

The concentration of phosphate in fertilizer, ci has been given as:

The ci of the solution has been 92 g/L.

The final volume of the solution, vf has been given as 32 gallons. The volume of solution has been:

The vf of the solution has been 121.1 L.

The final concentration of the dilution has been:

Substituting the values in the equation:

The final concentration of phosphate in the solution has been 0.36 g/L.

The final phosphate concentration is 0.36 g/L.

I would express the concentrations in grams per litre and then use the dilution equation.

V_i = 16 fl oz × (29.57 mL/1 fl oz) = 473 mL

Mass of phosphate = 473 mL × (9.20 g/100.0 mL) = 43.5 g

c_i = 43.5 g/473 mL = 0.0920 g/mL = 92.0 g/L

V_f = 32.0 gal × (3.785 L/1 gal) = 121.1 L

c_iV_i = c_f V_f

c_f = c_i × V_i/V_f = 92.0 g/L × (0.473 L/121.1 L) = 0.36 g/L

The final phosphate concentration is 0.36 g/L.
