Solution

Volume of the solution =100 cm2
Density of the solution =1.10g/cm3
Therefore, mass of 100 cm3 of solution =100×1.10g=110g
The given solutions is 15%. Therefore, 100g of solution contains 15g of H2 SO4
Then, mass H2SO4 in 10g (100 cm3) of solution =15 g100g×110 g=16.5g
Mass of water in 110g (100 cm3) of solution = (110 - 16.5)g = 93.5g
To obtain 100 cm3 of 15% solution acid, we require the given information,
Mass of water = 93.5 g
Mass of H2SO4 (100% pure) = 16.5g
Since, the given sulphuric acid is 95% pure, hence,
Mass of H2SO4 (95%\) will be required =
100×16.5g95=17.37g
Density of 95% H2SO4=1.85 cm3
