Q. No. 1:If a certain quantity of 40% HCL is mixed with 60% HCL in the ratio 4:1. This is mixed with 32% HCL in the ratio 2:1. From this, 25 L is removed and replaced with 50 L water to get 20% HCL. What is the amount of 60% HCL(in Litres)  taken for the the entire process?
A :
30
B :
25
C :
20
D :
10
Q. No. 2:Three Jugs namely P,Q and R each contain 100ml of lime-water solution. The ratio of lime to water in the jug P,Q and R is 1:3, 1:4 and 2:3 respectively. 40ml of solution is transferred from jug P to Jug R and then 28ml of solution is transferred from jug R to jug Q. Find the the final ratio of lime in the jug P,Q and R.
A :
3:6:8
B :
6:15:20
C :
15:28:42
D :
8:15:24
Q. No. 3:There are two alloys A and B. Alloys A contains metals P, R and S. Alloy B contains metals P and Q. Both alloys contains 60% of metal P. They are mixed to form a third alloy. the percentage of metal Q in the third alloy is half of that of metal P in it. The ratio of percentage of R and S in Alloy A is 3:1. Find the ratio of quantities of R in Alloy A and Q in Alloy B, which are mixed to form the third alloy.
A :
3:2
B :
2:3
C :
3:4
D :
1:4
