Interpretation:
The volume of wine present in
Concept introduction:
Several concentration units may be used to express the concentration. It is often useful to express the concentration in terms of percentage. This can be expressed as the amount of solute in grams dissolved in
The formula to calculate the volume /volume percent is as follows:

- How many grams of glucose must be added to 275 g of water in order to prepare each of the following percent-by-mass concentrations of aqueous glucose solution? a. 1.30% b. 5.00% c. 20.0% d. 31.0%arrow_forwardHow many grams of lactose must be added to 655 g of water in order to prepare each of the following percent-by-mass concentrations of aqueous lactose solution? a. 0.50% b. 2.00% c. 10.0% d. 25.0%arrow_forwardA patient has a “cholesterol count” of 214. Like manyblood-chemistry measurements,this result is measured inunits of milligrams per deciliter (mgdL1). Determine the molar concentration of cholesterol inthis patient’s blood, taking the molar mass of cholesterolto be 386.64gmol1. Estimate the molality of cholesterol in the patient’sblood. If 214 is a typical cholesterol reading among men inthe United States, determine the volume of such bloodrequired to furnish 8.10 g of cholesterol.arrow_forward
- Assume that you have identical volumes of two liquids; the first is 0.3 M glucose solution and the second is 0.1 M glucose solution. Based on the diagrams in Problem 8-85, where red is the 0.3 M glucose and blue is the 0.1 M glucose, which one of the diagrams best represents the two liquids after they have stood uncovered for a few days and some evaporation of liquid has occurred?arrow_forward6-21 Are mixtures of gases true solutions or heterogeneous mixtures? Explain.arrow_forwardA 12-oz (355-mL) Pepsi contains 38.9 mg caffeine (molar mass = 194.2 g/mol). Assume that the Pepsi, mainly water, has a density of 1.01 g/mL. For such a Pepsi, calculate: (a) its caffeine concentration in ppm; (b) its molarity of caffeine; and (c) the molality of caffeine.arrow_forward
- A gaseous solute dissolves in water. The solution process has H=15 kJ. Its solubility at 22C and 6.00 atm is 0.0300 M. Would you expect the solubility to be greater or less at (a) 22C and 1 atm? (a) 18C and 6 atm? (a) 15C and 10 atm? (a) 35C and 3 atm?arrow_forward6-70 In winter, after a snowstorm, salt (NaCI) is spread to melt the ice on roads. How many grams of salt per 1000. g of ice is needed to make it liquid at-5°C?arrow_forward
