Answer:
29% is the final concentration
Explanation:
To solve this question we must find the volume of ethanol added and the volume of the whole solution. The concentration will be:
Volume ethanol / Total volume * 100
Volume ethanol:
10mL * 70% = 7mL ethanol
+
20mL * 80% = 16mL ethanol
= 23mL ethanol
Total volume:
10mL + 20mL + 50mL = 80mL
Concentration:
23mL / 80mL * 100
= 29% is the final concentration
