The total volume of the two separate materials will contract when mixed. Do you know the factor to adjust for this? Without it, the following equation will be incomplete:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x, the amount of the alcohol
\n" ); document.write( "650-x, the amount of water\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%2F650=0.03\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=0.03%28650%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=19.5%2AmlofAlcohol\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
