Answer:

The present percentage of pure alcohol in the solution is 72.25% of pure alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of pure alcohol poured from the 2 l bottle of pure alcohol = 300 ml of pure alcohol

The volume of water added into the bottle after pouring out the pure alcohol = 300 ml of water

The volume of diluted alcohol poured out of the bottle = 300 ml of diluted alcohol

The volume of water added into the bottle of diluted alcohol after pouring out the 300 ml of diluted alcohol = 300 ml of water

Step 1

After pouring the 300 ml of pure alcohol and adding 300 ml of water to the bottle, the percentage concentration, C%₁ is given as follows;

C%₁ = (Volume of pure alcohol)/(Total volume of the solution) × 100

The volume of pure alcohol in the bottle = 2 l - 300 ml = 1,700 ml

The total volume of the solution = The volume of pure alcohol in the bottle +  The volume of water added = 1,700 ml + 300 ml = 2,000 ml = 2 l

∴ C%₁ = (1,700 ml)/(2,000 ml) × 100 = 85% percent alcohol

Step 2

After pouring out 300 ml diluted alcohol from the 2,000 ml, 85% alcohol and adding 300 ml of water, we have;

Volume of 85% alcohol = 2,000 ml - 300 ml = 1,700 ml

The volume of pure alcohol in the 1,700 ml, 85% diluted alcohol = 85/100 × 1,700 = 1,445 ml

The total volume of the diluted solution = The volume of the 85% alcohol in the solution + The volume of water added

∴ The total volume of the twice diluted solution = 1,700 ml + 300 ml = 2,000 ml

The present percentage of pure alcohol in the solution, C%₂ = (The volume of pure alcohol in the 1,700 ml, 85% diluted alcohol)/(The total volume of the diluted solution) × 100

∴ C%₂ = (1,445 ml)/(2,000 ml) × 100 = 72.25 %

The present percentage of pure alcohol in the solution, C%₂ = 72.25%

Jason is cutting a roll of sausage into pieces that are 1/2 inches thifk if the roll is 6 inchew long how many pieces of sausage
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

12 rolls

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason wants to cut roll into pieces that are each 1/2 inches thick. 1/2 is equal to 0.5, so thickness of each roll is 0.5 inches

Total length of the roll is 6 inches. We have to find how many small 0.5 inch rolls can he cut.

In simple words we can say that we have to find: how many 0.5 inches can be out from 6 inches. This type of problem is solved by division. Dividing 6 inches by 0.5 inches will give us: How many 0.5 inches can be cut out from 6 inches i.e. how many 0.5 inches roll can be made from 6 inches roll

6 divided by 0.5 is 12.

This means Jason can cut 12 rolls of sausages each with thickness of 0.5 inches from a roll of 6 inches.
