Answer:
From each fluidounce, 985.78 milliliters of the more dilute product can be produced.
Explanation:
From the given information:
4% w/v = 4g of solute in 100 mL of solution
0.12% w/v = 0.12g of solute in 100 mL of solution
Since 1 fluidounce = 29.5735 ml
∴
100 mL of solution contains 4g of solute
29.95735 ml will have [tex]\dfrac{4}{100} \times 29.5735[/tex]
= 1.18294g solute
Thus, 1 fluidounce contains 1.18294g solute
So, for the dilute solution, 0.12 g solute yields 100 mL solution
∴ 1.18294g will have [tex]\dfrac{100}{0.12} \times 1.18294[/tex]
= 985.78 ml
