Answer:

437.5 kg of first solution and 812.5 kg of second solution should be mixed to get desired solution.

Explanation:

Let the mass of the first solution be x and second solution be y.

Amount solution required = 1250 kg

x + y = 1250 kg....[1]

Percentage of ethanol in required solution = 12% of 1250 kg

Percentage of ethanol in solution-1 = 5% of x

Percentage of ethanol in required solution = 25% of y

5% of x +  25% of y =12% of 1250 kg

\frac{5}{100}\times x+\frac{25}{100}y=\frac{12}{100}\times 1250 kg

x + 5y = 3000 kg...[2]

Solving [1] and [2] we :

x = 437.5 kg   , y =  812.5 kg

437.5 kg of first solution and 812.5 kg of second solution should be mixed to get desired solution.

How many grams are in 3.00 moles of carbon
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer: Ok I think The SI base unit for amount of substance is the mole. 1 mole is equal to 1 moles Carbon, or 12.0107 grams. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results. Use this page to learn how to convert between moles Carbon and gram. 12 grams

This means that the atomic mass or atomic weight (12 grams) of carbon is equal to exactly 1 mole of carbon.

hope this helps have a awesome night/day❤️✨

Why does chlorine react vigorously with hydrogen in the presence of sunlight?
AleksandrR [38]
Chlorine react vigorously with hydrogen in the present of sunlight because chlorine has a great attraction for hydrogen's electron. During the reaction, chlorine  and hydrogen will donate one electron each from their valence electrons which will be shared equally by both elements, thus forming a covalent bond.

Match the following descriptions with the correct polysaccharide, note if you answer any part of this question incorrectly a sig
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Glycogen. Cellulose. Amylose. Cellulose. Amylopetin and Glycogen. Amylopetin and Cellulose.

Explanation:

Glycogen is the form that glucose is stored in human body.

Cellulose is the structural part of plant cell walls and human cannot digest it.

Amylose is the polysaccharide linked mainly by the the bonds of \alpha 1,4 glycosidic.

Cellulose is an unbranched polysaccharide linked mainly by the bonds of  \beta 1,4 glycosidic.

Amylopetin and Glycogen are branched polysaccharides linked by the bonds of \alpha 1,4 glycosidic and \alpha 1,6 glycosidic.

Amylopetin and Cellulose are mainly stored in plants.
