You must add 7.5 pt of the 30 % sugar to the 5 % sugar to get a 20 % solution.

You can use a modified dilution formula to calculate the volume of 30 % sugar.

<em>V</em>_1×<em>C</em>_1 + <em>V</em>_2×<em>C</em>_2 = <em>V</em>_3×<em>C</em>_3

Let the volume of 30 % sugar = <em>x</em> pt. Then the volume of the final 20 % sugar = (5 + <em>x</em> ) pt

(<em>x</em> pt×30 % sugar) + (5 pt×5 % sugar) = (<em>x</em> + 5) pt × 20 % sugar

30<em>x</em> + 25 = 20x + 100

10<em>x</em> = 75

<em>x</em> = 75/10 = 7.5

The percent composition of carbon in C6H12O6 is:
nata0808 [166]
To calculate percent composition, you first need to find the molar mass of C (carbon), H (hydrogen) and O (oxygen).
C is 12.01
H is 1.00
O is 16

Then multiply each by the number of atoms of each element in the formula (the number that comes after each element in the equation for example C6 means 6 carbon atoms.

C: 12.01 x 6= 72.06
H: 1x12= 12
O: 16x6= 96

Then add them up.
72.06+ 12+ 96= 180.06

Now find the percent composition of carbon.

72.06/ 180.06 x 100= 40.01%

So the answer is C 40%.

Why alkali metals have low malting and bioling point
Arada [10]
Alkali metals have only one valence electron and so have low binding energy to the metallic crystal lattice. ... A lower amount of energy needed to break a bond means a lower melting/boiling point.
