how do will prepare 600ml of 60%v/v alcohol from 30%v/v alcohol and 70%v/v alcohol?
Answers
Answer:
Quantity required = 20parts of 60%+10 parts of 50%+ 1 ... What is the proof strength of 95% v/v alcohol. ... V = volume of isotonic solution in ml that can be prepared ...
600ml of 60% v/v alcohol will be prepared by adding 450ml of 70% v/v alcohol and 150ml of 30% v/v alcohol.
Given:
Quantity of 60% v/v alcohol=600 ml
To find:
The quantity of 70% and 30% v/v alcohols
Solution:
We know that the quantity of each alcohol can be obtained by using the concept of alligation.
The ratio of the quantities of the 70% v/v alcohol and 30% v/v alcohol to make 60 ml of 60% v/v alcohol is as follows-
The ratio of 30% v/v alcohol to 70% v/v alcohol=(70-60):(60-30)
=10: 30
=1: 3
Now, the total quantity of 60% v/v soolution=600ml
Out of this 600ml, the quantity of 30% v/v alcohol=1/4×600
=150 ml
The quantity of 70% v/v alcohol=3/4×600
=450 ml
Therefore, 600ml of 60% v/v alcohol will be prepared by adding 450ml
of 70% v/v alcohol and 150ml of 30% v/v alcohol.
