Dilution Definition and 70 Threads

Stock dilution, also known as equity dilution, is the decrease in existing shareholders' ownership percentage of a company as a result of the company issuing new equity. New equity increases the total shares outstanding which has a dilutive effect on the ownership percentage of existing shareholders. This increase in the number of shares outstanding can result from a primary market offering (including an initial public offering), employees exercising stock options, or by issuance or conversion of convertible bonds, preferred shares or warrants into stock. This dilution can shift fundamental positions of the stock such as ownership percentage, voting control, earnings per share, and the value of individual shares.

    DeltaH of Diluting 24% NaOH to 2% in H2O

    Hello I know that dissolving pure NaOH in water will generate heat. But what happens when you dilute a 24% NAOH solution with water till 2%? Example: What is the DeltaH for 100 ml 24% NaOH solution + 50 ml H2O? Thanks

    So the question is: what is the optical density of the original sample?

    The problem: how to determine the optical density of a diluted sample Hi, i work on algae and bioenergy and i have a question about the OD. I have to determine the optical density of about 400 samples. Some samples however are too "dense" for the photospectrometer, that is they have an optical...

    Why Do We Square Molarities in Free Energy Calculations for HCl Dilution?

    Calculate ΔG for the dilution of aqueous HCl from 0.89 M to 0.253 M at 25°C. THis was a question I had to do some time earlier for one of my assignments. I got some help from a classmate and he said THE FOLLOWING: "H+ and Cl- are equimolar so you have to put them to the power of two...

    Equilibrium Position - Effect of Dilution

    Iodine is sparingly soluble in pure water. However, it does `dissolve' in solutions containing excess iodide ion because of the following reaction: I-(aq) + I2(aq) I3-(aq) K = 710 L/mol For each of the following cases calculate the equilbrium ratio of [I3-] to [I2]: 2.00×10-2 mol...

    Calculate ΔG for Dilution of HCl from 0.89M to 0.253M

    1. Calculate ΔG for the dilution of aqueous HCl from 0.89 M to 0.253 M at 25°C. data 2. The process you are considering is: H+(aq) + Cl-(aq)® H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) (for which ΔG°=0 i.e. standard states all round--both sides are the same). Now use ΔG=ΔG° + RTln(Q). (Use the actual...

    PH, Buffers, and Dilution question

    I understand the henderson-hasselbalch equation, and how the pH of a solution depends on the ratio of acid to its conjugate base. However, I don't understand how this concept can be related to solutions that are extremely diluted. For example, let's say you have 0.00001M acid+c.base...

    What Is the Concentration of Pb(ClO3)2 in the Original Solution?

    I've been practicing some dilution problems from my chemistry book and I can't seem to get some of these down. A 13 mL sample of a solution of Pb(ClO3)2 was diluted with water to 21 mL. A 15 mL sample of the dilute solution was found to contain 2.7 moles of Pb2+. What was the concentration of...

    Dilution of 0.01M HCN Calculating Volume of Water to Add

    I have a short question concerning the dilution of a 0.01M solution of HCN. I need to dilute 40cm3 of the above to give a solution with a pH of 6. Given the Ka of HCN is 4.8*10^-10 I obtain the concentration of HCN necessary in the new volume:2.08*10^-3M. Therefore the volume has to be...
