1 L of water is added to 5 L of alcohol and water solution containing 40% alcohol strength. The strength of alcohol in the new solution will be ?
-
- 30%
- 331/3%
- 332/3%
- 33%
Correct Option: B
Quantity of alcohol in 5 L of solution = (40/100) x 5 = 2 L
Quantity of alcohol in 6 L of solution = 2 L
∴ Strength of alcohol in new solution = (2/6) x 100%
= 331/3%
