The strength of alcoholic beverages like beer, wine, and spirits is typically expressed in units of alcohol by volume or abv. The abv is calculated by dividing the volume of ethanol (C2H5OH) by the total volume of solution. If the abv of a strong beer like a doppelbock is 8.0%, we can express the concentration in other units from the density of H2O and C2H5OH, which are 1.0 g/mL and 0.79 g/mL at 20° C, respectively. What is the concentration of this beer in a. mass percent (also known as alcohol by weight or abw), b. mole percent, c. molarity, d. molality?

Fluoridation of city water supplies has been practiced in the United States for several decades. It is done by continuously adding sodium fluoride to water as it comes from a reservoir. Assume you live in a medium-sized city of 150,000 people and that 660 L (170 gal) of water is used per person per day. What mass of sodium fluoride (in kilograms) must be added to the water supply each year (365 days) to have the required fluoride concentration of 1 ppm (part per million)that is, 1 kilogram of fluoride per 1 million kilograms of water? (Sodium fluoride is 45.0% fluoride, and water has a density of 1.00 g/cm3.)
