In order to prepare very dilute solutions, a lab technician chooses to perform a series of dilutions instead of measuring a very small mass. A solution was prepared by dissolving 0.360 g of KNO3 in enough water to make 500. mL of solution. A 10.0 mL sample of this solution was transferred to a 500.0-mL volumetric flask and diluted to the mark with water. Then 10.0 mL of the diluted solution was transferred to a 250.0-mL flask and diluted to the mark with water. What is the final concentration of the KNO3 solution?

7.91 × 10-9 M
5.70 × 10-6 M
2.85 × 10-6 M
7.12 × 10-3 M
1.42 × 10-4 M

Steam reforming of methane ( ch4) produces "synthesis gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas, which is the starting point for many important industrial chemical syntheses. an industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a 1.5 l flask with 3.5 atm of methane gas and 1.3 atm of water vapor at 43.0°c. he then raises the temperature, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium measures the partial pressure of carbon monoxide gas to be 1 .0 atm. calculate the pressure equilibrium constant for the steam reforming of methane at the final temperature of the mixture. round your answer to 2 significant digits.
