  1. Pick out the wrong statement.

  2. A.
    To make 100 kg of a solution containing 40% salt by mixing solution A (containing 25% salt) and solution B (containing 50% salt), the amount of solution A required is 40 kg.
    B.
    1.2 gm atoms of carbon and 1.5 gm moles of oxygen are reacted to give 1 gm mole of carbon dioxide. The limiting reactant is carbon. The percent excess reactant supplied is 25.
