Problema Solution

If in a 8% solution 8 g = 100ml how many grams of glucose are contained in a 1300 ml of a 8% glucose solution?

Answer provided by our tutors

8% of 1300 is:

0.08*1300 = 104 ml

We need to convert ml to grams.

Since 

100 ml = 8 g divide both sides by 100

1 ml = 8/100 g multiply both sides by 104

104 ml = (8*104)/100 g

104 ml = 8.32 g

There are 8.32 grams of glucose in 1300 ml of 8% glucose solution.
