The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze the two statements provided: **Statement 1:** On dilution, molarity of solution changes. **Statement 2:** Number of moles of solute in a solution does not change on dilution. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Molarity:** - Molarity (M) is defined as the number of moles of solute divided by the volume of the solution in liters. - The formula for molarity is: \[ \text{Molarity (M)} = \frac{\text{Number of moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution in liters}} \] 2. **Effect of Dilution on Molarity:** - When a solution is diluted, the volume of the solution increases because more solvent is added. - Since molarity is inversely related to the volume of the solution (keeping the number of moles constant), an increase in volume will lead to a decrease in molarity. - Therefore, **Statement 1** is true: on dilution, the molarity of the solution changes. 3. **Effect of Dilution on Number of Moles:** - The number of moles of solute is determined by the amount of solute present before dilution. - When a solution is diluted, the amount of solute does not change; only the volume of the solution changes. - Therefore, **Statement 2** is also true: the number of moles of solute in a solution does not change on dilution. 4. **Relationship Between the Two Statements:** - Statement 2 provides a correct explanation for Statement 1. Since the number of moles remains constant while the volume increases, the molarity must decrease. - Thus, **Statement 2** is a correct explanation for **Statement 1**. 5. **Conclusion:** - Both statements are true, and Statement 2 correctly explains Statement 1. - Therefore, the correct answer is: **Option 1: Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, and Statement 2 is a correct explanation for Statement 1.** ### Final Answer: **Option 1: Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, and Statement 2 is a correct explanation for Statement 1.** ---
