JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 6.2. Equilibrium - II (icon Equilibrium)

What quantity (in \(mL\)) of a \(45\%\) acid solution of a mono-protic strong acid must be mixed with a \(20\%\) solution of the same acid to produce \(800\, mL\) of a \(29.875\%\) acid solution?

  1. A \(320\)
  2. B \(325\)
  3. C \(316\)
  4. D \(330\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(316\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{{V \times 45}}{{100}} + \frac{{(800 - V) \times 20}}{{100}} = \frac{{800 \times 29.875}}{{100}}\) \( \Rightarrow \frac{{9V}}{{20}} + 160 - \frac{V}{5} = 239\) \( \Rightarrow V = 136\)
