Homework Statement
A mineral slurry contains 3 components, solids, liquids and toluene.
The slurry has 20 wt% solids and 80 wt% liquid. In the liquid portion of the slurry the mole ratio of toluene to water is 1:5.67
Determine the composition of the slurry (solids, toluene and water) in wt%.
and
Determined the composition of the liquid (toluene and water) in wt%.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Wasn't sure how to do this question without the molecular mass of Toluene (Which I googled, I don't think we were suppose to know what chemical compound of toluene to solve this question).However, is there an alternative method of solving this problem WITHOUT knowing the molar mass or chemical compound of Toluene (we were allowed to use a Periodic Table).
Thanks a bunch
