What volume of ethyl alcohol and water must be mixed together to prepare 250ml of 60% by volume of alcohol in water.
Dear Preetham,
60% y volume means 60 ml ethyl alcohol in 100 ml of solution.
So,Water is 100-60 = 40 ml.
Hence, ethyl alcohol to Water ratio is 60/40 = 3/2
So, in 250 ml solution, 3 parts of 250ml is ethyl alcohol and 2 parts of 250ml is water.
In total, 5 parts makes 250.
So 1 part is 250/2 = 50 ml.
Hence ethyl alcohol needed is 150ml and water 100ml.
