题目

A mixture contains nothing but water and acetone in a ratio of 1:2. After 200 mL of water is added to the mixture, the ratio of water to acetone is 2:3.


Quantity A

The original volume of the mixture


Quantity B

1800mL


选项

A.

The quantity in Column A is greater.

B.

The quantity in Column B is greater.

C.

The two quantities are equal.

D.

The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.

解析

设原来混合物中水的体积为\(x\)毫升,因为原来水和丙酮的比例是\(1:2\),所以丙酮的体积为\(2x\)毫升,那么原来混合物的总体积就是\(x + 2x=3x\)毫升。 加入\(200\)毫升水后,水的体积变为\((x + 200)\)毫升,此时水与丙酮的比例为\(2:3\),根据比例关系可得: \(\frac{x+200}{2x}=\frac{2}{3}\) 交叉相乘得到: \(3(x + 200)=2\times(2x)\) \(3x+600 = 4x\) 解得\(x = 600\) 所以原来混合物的体积\(3x=3\times600 = 1800\)毫升 即数量\(A\)等于数量\(B\),答案为\(C\)
