the density increases down the group.
Answer:
57.48%
Explanation:
Calculate the mass of 1 mole of malachite:
MM Cu = 63.55
MM O = 16.00
MM H = 1.01
MM C = 12.01

A mole of malachite has:
2 moles of Cu
5 moles of O
2 moles of H
1 mole of C
MW Malachite = 2*MM(CU) + 5*MM(O) + 2*MM(H) + 1 *MM(C)
MW Malachite = 2*63.55 + 5*16.00 + 2*1.01 + 1*12.01
MW Malachite = 221.13
Mass of Cu in a mole of Malachite = 2*MM(CU) = 127.1
Now divide the mass of Cu by the mass of Malachite

The patient needs 1000 ml of 5% (w/v) glucose solution
i.e 1000 ml x 5 g/ 100 ml
where the stock solution is 55% (w/v) = 55 g / 100 ml
So, 1000 ml x 5 g / 100 ml = V (ml) x 55 g / 100 ml
V = 1000 x (5 / 100) / (55 / 100) = 5000 / 55 = 90.9 ml
∴ the patient needs 90.9 ml of 55% (w/v) glucose solution
