A solution of sugar is obtained by mixing 200 g of its 25% solution and 500 g of its 40% solution (both by mass). The mass percentage of the resulting sugar solution is_______(Nearest integer)
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
200
(36) Mass of solution = 200 + 500 = 700 g
25% of sugar solution means lOOg solution contain 25g sugar
40% of sugar solution means lOOg solution contain 40g sugar
Mass of sugar = 0.25 x 200 + 0.40 x 500
= 50 + 200 = 250 g
Mass % of resulting solution
