Eighty-six proof Wild Turkey Whiskey is 43% ethanol and 57% water by volume. The density of ethanol (C2H5OH) at 25 degrees Celcius is 0.79 kg/L. Determine the molarity of ethanol in the Wild Turkey.
density of ethanol = 0.79kg/lit=790gms/lit=790gms/1000ml=0.79gms/1ml
every 100ml of wild turkey consits of 43ml of ethanol.
so 1000ml consists of 430ml of ethanol
hence
mass of ethanol in wild turkey per litre = volumeX density=430 X 0.79 = 339.7gms
so molarity of ethanol in wild turkey is given by
