The mass of the apple juice needed to increase the initial concentration to 25% is 45 kg

The given parameters;

  • Mass of the apple juice, m = 30 kg
  • current percentage, = 10%
  • final percent after increment = 25%

Let the mass added to increase the percentage to 30% = x

10% ----------------- 30 kg

25% ------------------ ?

[tex]= \frac{25 \times 30}{10} \\\\= 75 \ kg[/tex]

The additional mass is calculated as;

[tex]x+ 30 = 75\\\\x = 75 - 30\\\\x = 45 \ kg[/tex]

Thus, the mass of the apple juice needed to increase the initial concentration to 25% is 45 kg.
