It is a dilution by a factor of 0.729166, which is quite close to 3/4.

For a 3/4 dilution (that will give a 72% final solution, add 3 parts 96% alcohol and 1 part water. You can do this with any volume container.

For an exact dilution, add 0.729 parts alcohol and 0.271 parts water. You'll need a graduated cylinder to do this accurately.

To make 70% alcohol from 95%, add to 70 c.c. of 95% alcohol enough water to make 95 c.c. The result will be 95 c.c. of 70 % alcohol. See "A simple method of diluting Alcohol to any desired per cent" http://www.biolbull.org/cgi/reprint/s1-1/5/245.pdf

First, here is the more abstract solution. Give a little twist to the well-known formula, V1 * M1 = V2 * M2 0.95x + 0.3y = 0.7 (x+y) 95x + 30y = 70x + 70y 25x = 40y 5x = 8y x = (8/5)yNow Specific example: You are trying to make 1L of 70% ethanol solution by mixing 95% ethanol with 30% ethanol. x (95% EtOH) + y (30% EtOH) = 1000mL (1L, 70% EtOH) (8/5)y + y = 1000mL (13/5)y = 1000mL y = 385mL (approximation) x = 615mL (approximation) So you'll need to mix 615mL of 95% ethanol with 385mL 30% ethanol to get 1L of 70% ethanol.

If you are talking about % or proof, dilute it 4 in 5 parts. eg, if you have 50ml glass, it should be 40ml 100% alcohol and 10ml mixer.

What is 70 percent alcohol and what is 95 percent alcohol which is better to use and why?

70% alcohol means in hundred parts of it, 70 parts are pure alcohol, rest is water. 95% means 95 parts of pure alcohol in 100 parts, so 5 parts of water. It depends on the usage. As a solvent, 95% would be preferred. As antiseptic, both can be used, 75% being more common as medicinal spirit. For consumption, fairly dilute concentrations are preferred. Above 43% are rare so both the above concentrations are dangerous for consumption.

Can alcohol evaporated from mixture of waterand alcohol?

Yes, the process is known as Distillation. Works on the property that Alcohol (ethanol) and Water have different boiling points. Water boils at 100 C and Alcohol at about 60-70 C. Heating above 70 but below 95 will vaporise the alcohol, leaving Water.


How much 95 percent alcohol is required to prepare 5 L of 70 percent alcohol?

70/19 or 3.684 liters. Here's how. 5 liters of 70% alcohol contains 3.5 liters of pure alcohol. So if X equals the answer to the question, then 0.95 * X = 3.5. That means X = 3.5/0.95 or "normalizing" the fraction gives 70/19 = 3.684L.
