Interpretation:
The weight/volume percent concentration represented by the sports drink that contains
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 weight/volume percent is as follows:
The conversion factor to convert fluid ounce to milliliters is as follows:

- A compound has a solubility in water of 750 mg/L at 25C. Should this compound be characterized as a soluble or insoluble compound at 25C?arrow_forwardStarch contains CC, CH, CO, and OH bonds. Hydrocarbons have only CC and CH bonds. Both starch and hydrocarbons can form colloidal dispersions in water. Which dispersion is classified as hydrophobic? Which is hydrophilic? Explain briefly.arrow_forwardA martini, weighing about 5.0 oz (142 g), contains 30.0% by mass of alcohol. About 15% of the alcohol in the martini passes directly into the bloodstream (7.0 L for an adult). Estimate the concentration of alcohol in the blood (g/cm3) of a person who drinks two martinis before dinner. (A concentration of 0.00080 g/cm3 or more is frequently considered indicative of intoxication in a normal adult.)arrow_forward
- In a police forensics lab, you examine a package that may contain heroin. However, you find the white powder is not pure heroin but a mixture of heroin (C12H23O5N) and lactose (C12H22O11). To determine the amount of heroin in the mixture, you dissolve 1.00 g of the white powdery mixture in water in a 100.0-mL volumetric flask. You find that the solution has an osmotic pressure of 539 mm Hg at 25 C. What is the composition of the mixture?arrow_forwardIf you prepared a saturated aqueous solution of potassiumchloride at 25°C and then heated it to 50°C, wouldyou describe the solution as unsaturated, saturated, orsupersaturated? Explain.arrow_forwardSpecifications for lactated Ringers solution, which is used for intravenous (IV) injections, are as follows to reach 100. mL of solution: 285315 mg Na+ 14.117.3 mg K+ 4.9Q.O mg Ca2+ 368408 mg Cl 231261 mg lactate, C3H5O3 a. Specify the amount of NaCl, KCl, CaCl2 2H2O, and NaC3H5O3 needed to prepare 100. mL lactated Ringers solution. b. What is the range of the osmotic pressure of the solution at 37C, given the preceding specifications?arrow_forward
