Problem

You have a 0.0500 M stock solution of a colored compound. What volume of this stock (in milliliters) must be diluted to 100.0 mL so that the resulting solution will have an absorbance of 0.400 in a 1.00 cm cuvette at a wavelength where the molar absorptivity is 4.00×103 L mol−1 cm−14.00\times10^{3}\,\text{L\,mol}^{-1}\,\text{cm}^{-1}?
