NUMERICALS

1. How many litres of 15% (mass/volume) sugar solution would it take to get 75
g of sugar?
2. A solution contains 40 g of common salt in 320 g of water. Calculate the
concentration in terms of mass by mass percentage of the solution.
3. A solution is prepared by adding 40 g of sugar in 100 g of water. Calculate the
concentration in terms of mass by mass percentage of solution.
4. Calculate the mass of water and mass of glucose required to make 300 g of
30% solution of glucose.
5. During an experiment the students were asked to prepare a 10 % (Mass/
Mass) solution of sugar in water. Ramesh dissolved 10 g of sugar in 100 g of
water while Sarika prepared it by dissolving 10 g of sugar in water to make
100 g of the solution.
(a) Are the two solutions of the same concentration?
(b) Compare the mass % of the two solutions.
(c) Who made the correct solution?
6. Calculate the mass of sodium sulphate required to prepare its 20% (mass
percent) solution in 100 g of water.
7. What volume of ethyl alcohol and water must be mixed together to prepare
250 ml of 60% by volume of alcohol in water.
8. The teacher instructed three students A, B and C respectively to prepare a
50% (mass by volume) solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH). A dissolved 50g
of NaOH in 100 ml of water, B dissolved 50g of NaOH in 100g of water while
C dissolved 50g of NaOH in water to make 100 ml of solution. Which one of
them has made the desired solution? Give your answer with reason.
9. A solution contains 50 g of sugar in 350 g of water. Calculate the
concentration of solution in terms of mass by mass percent of the solution.
10. To make a saturated solution, 72 g of sodium chloride is dissolved in 200 g of
water at 200C. Find its concentration at the same temperature.
