Question
How much water should be mixed with 12 mL of alcohol so as to obtain 12 % alcohol solution ?
Advertisements
Solution
Volume of solute = 12 ml
Volume of solution = volume of solute + volume of solvent
Volume of solvent = volume of solution – volume of solvent = 100 – 12 = 88 ml
`"Concentration" = "Volume of solute"/"volume of solute + mass of solvent"xx 100`
`12 =12/(12 + x)xx100`
`x=88`
So, 88 ml of water will be added to 12 ml of alcohol in order to prepare a concentration 12%.

A, B and C are all liquids. Liquid A has a comparatively low boiling point. On heating, liquid A vaporises completely without leaving behind any residue. Liquid A is being used increasingly as a fuel in motor vehicles either alone or by mixing with petrol. Liquid B has a very high boiling point. It also vaporises completely on heating, without leaving any residue. Liquid B is a conductor of electricity and used in making thermometers. Liquid C has a moderate boiling point. On heating, liquid C vaporises leaving behind a white solid D which is used in cooking vegetables. The condensation of vapours from C give a liquid E which turns anhydrous CuSO4 to blue.
