Answer:

The answer to your question is 3 L of solution 40% and 2 L of solution 20%

Explanation:

Data

Final volume = Vf = 5000 ml = 5 L

Final concentration = Cf = 32%

Concentration 1 = C1 = 40%

Concentration 2 = C2 = 20%

Volume 1 = x

Volume 2 = 5 - x

Process

1.- Write an equation to solve this problem

     VfCf = C1V1 + C2V2

2.- Substitution

    32(5) = 40x + 20(5 - x)

3.- Solve for x

     160 = 40x + 100 - 20x

     160 - 100 = 40x - 20x

               60 = 20x

               60/20 = x

               x = 3

     Then, Volume 1 = 3 L

4.- Find Volume 2

     Volume 2 = 5 - 3

     Volume 2 = 2 L

How to convert 0.000984 into scientific notation?
Olin [163]
9.84 * 10^-4
The easiest way I remember is making the decimal first and then seeing what way the 0's are. In this case it is going left so it will be a negative exponent and if you count from 9.84 and move the decimal left 4 that's your answer.

In the following reaction, how many liters of oxygen produce 560 liters of
saw5 [17]

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

We are given the amount of carbon dioxide to produce from the reaction. This will be our starting point.

 

560 L CH4 ( 1 mol CH4/ 22.4 L CH4 ) (2 mol O2/ 1 mol CH4 ) ( 22.4 L O2 / 1 mol <span>O2</span><span>) = 1120 L O2</span>
