    139.5 mL.

    Explanation:

    To solve this question we will be making use of dilution law which is given by the equation below;

    C1 * V1 = C2 * V2. Where C1 = the initial concentration, V1 = Initial volume, C2 = final concentration, V2 = Initial volume.

    So, from the question we are given the following parameters; V1 = 186 mL, C1 = 0.275 M, C2 = 1.10 M and V2 = unknown (?).

    Therefore, slotting in the above parameters into the dilution equation we have;

    0.275 * 186 = 1.10 * V2.

    V2 = 0.275 * 186 / 1.10.

    V2 = 46.5 mL.

    The volume of solvent that has evaporated from the 0.275 M solution = 186 mL - 46.5 mL = 139.5 mL.
