Yes

Explanation:

When diluting a solution with distilled water, M_1V_1=M_2V_2M1V1=M2V2 where M_1M1 and V_1V1 are the molarity and volume of the concentrated solution and M_2M2 and V_2V2 are the molarity and volume of the dilute solution.

In this situation, M_1=1.0247"M"M1=1.0247M, V_1=25"mL"V1=25mL, and V_2=250."mL"V2=250.mL. Rearranging the equation to solve for M_2M2 gives M_2=(M_1V_1)/V_2M2=M1V1V2.

Plugging in the known values, we have M_2=((1.0247"M")(25"mL"))/((250."mL"))M2=(1.0247M)(25mL)(250.mL), and solving that gives M_2=0.10247"M"M2=0.10247M
