1.	X. and .Y. are two different solutions of hydrochloric acidwith concentrations 5M and 2M respectively. If one litre of 3M hydrochloric acid is to be prepared by mixing only X and Y calculate their volumes.
Answer» Solution :Volume of solution .X. is V mL Volume of solution .Y. is (1000-V)mL MOLARITY desired to be obtained =3M Volume desired to be obtained =1000mL `M=(Vxx5(1000-V)2)/(1000)=3` SOLVING, V=333.3ml The volumes of Solutions .X. and .Y. are to be MIXED are RESPECTIVELY 333.3mL and 666.7mL.
