need help with a question
calculate the concentration of grams of sodium stearate per milliliter of diluted solution. To do this, multiply the concentration of sodium stearate in the dishwashing liquid by the dilution of the solution(1.50 ml dishwashing liquid per 100ml solution).
1g sodium stearate/100ml dish liquid x 1.50ml dish liquid/ 100ml diluted solution= ?g/ml
This may be the most oddly stated dilution problem I've ever seen.
Are you having trouble with the math?
(1/100) x (1.5/100) = ?
To calculate the concentration of grams of sodium stearate per milliliter of the diluted solution, you will need to multiply the concentration of sodium stearate in the dishwashing liquid by the dilution factor.
The given information states that the concentration of sodium stearate in the dishwashing liquid is 1g per 100ml of dish liquid, and the dilution factor is 1.50ml of dish liquid per 100ml of diluted solution.
To find the concentration in grams per milliliter, you can use the following calculation:
Concentration of sodium stearate = (Concentration of sodium stearate in dishwashing liquid) x (Dilution factor)
Concentration of sodium stearate = (1g/100ml) x (1.50ml/100ml)
Now, let's multiply the values:
Concentration of sodium stearate = 1g/100ml x 1.50ml/100ml
= (1g x 1.50ml) / (100ml x 100ml)
= 1.50g / 10000ml
= 0.00015g/ml
Therefore, the concentration of sodium stearate per milliliter of the diluted solution is 0.00015g/ml.
