Determine the volume percent of touline
in a solution made by mixing 40.0ML toluene with 75. 0 ml of benzene.
To determine the volume percent of toluene in the solution, we need to first calculate the total volume of the solution.
Total volume of solution = volume of toluene + volume of benzene
Total volume of solution = 40.0 mL + 75.0 mL
Total volume of solution = 115.0 mL
Now we can calculate the volume percent of toluene:
Volume percent of toluene = (volume of toluene / total volume of solution) x 100%
Volume percent of toluene = (40.0 mL / 115.0 mL) x 100%
Volume percent of toluene = 34.8%
Therefore, the solution made by mixing 40.0 mL toluene with 75.0 mL benzene has a volume percent of toluene of 34.8%.
To determine the volume percent of toluene in the solution, we need to calculate the volume of toluene and the total volume of the solution.
Given:
Volume of toluene = 40.0 mL
Volume of benzene = 75.0 mL
Step 1: Calculate the total volume of the solution.
Total volume = Volume of toluene + Volume of benzene
= 40.0 mL + 75.0 mL
= 115.0 mL
Step 2: Calculate the volume percent of toluene.
Volume percent of toluene = (Volume of toluene / Total volume) x 100
Substituting the values:
Volume percent of toluene = (40.0 mL / 115.0 mL) x 100
= 34.78
Therefore, the volume percent of toluene in the solution is approximately 34.78%.
