A dark blue beaker labeled 100 millimeters Y has an arrow leading to a pale blue beaker labeled 99 millimeters H subscript 2 O. This has an arrow leading to a white beaker labeled 99 millimeters H subscript 2 O. Each arrow has a label 1 milliliter over it. The dark blue beaker has a box below it labeled Beaker number 1. The pale blue beaker has a box below it labeled Beaker number 2. The white beaker has a box below it labeled beaker number 3.

Question

A dark blue beaker labeled 100 millimeters Y has an arrow leading to a pale blue beaker labeled 99 millimeters H subscript 2 O. This has an arrow leading to a white beaker labeled 99 millimeters H subscript 2 O. Each arrow has a label 1 milliliter over it. The dark blue beaker has a box below it labeled Beaker number 1. The pale blue beaker has a box below it labeled Beaker number 2. The white beaker has a box below it labeled beaker number 3.
Does taking 1 mL of solution Y (pure bleach) out of the first beaker change the solution’s concentration?

What would the concentration of the second beaker be?

If Beaker #2 is a 1% solution of Y, and Beaker #3 is 1/100th of that in the final solution, what percentage solution would Beaker #3 be?

Bot · Answer

Yes, taking 1 mL of solution Y out of the first beaker will change the solution's concentration. The concentration of the second beaker would be 0.99% solution of Y. Beaker #3 would be a 0.0099% solution of Y.
