0.150*L are required.

Explanation:

"Concentration" = "Moles of solute"/"Volume of solution".

And thus "Moles of solute "(n) = "Concentration "(mol*L^-1)xx"volume "(L)

In the required volume there are 0.750*Lxx0.20*mol*L^-1 = 0.150*mol.

Thus, in the starting volume, we need 0.150*L, which contains 0.150*mol. This volume is then diluted to 0.750*L.
