Derive a formula for the volume of water `V_(2)` which must be added to `V_(1)` mL of concentrated solution of molarity `M_(1)` to give a solution of molarity `M_(2)` .

Explanation

To derive the formula for the volume of water \( V_2 \) that must be added to \( V_1 \) mL of a concentrated solution with molarity \( M_1 \) to achieve a new molarity \( M_2 \), we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Understand Molarity
Molarity (M) is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. The formula for molarity is given by:
\[ M = \frac{\text{Number of moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution in liters}} \]
