Solution Preview

Here is some pointers you want to think about if you want to try to solve this by yourself:

To find the concentration we need to know two things:
1. How many moles of OH-1 are present in the final solution
2. How many liters of water are required in order to dissolve completely BaOH2.
Part 2 is essential, since we need to know if to get to 0.25L of solution we need to add ...
