**Question Statement:**  
One litre of water is added to 5 litres of an alcohol-water solution having 40% alcohol strength. The strength of alcohol in the new solution will be:

**Options:**

(c)

Accepted Answer

The initial solution contains 5 litres with 40% alcohol.  
- Amount of alcohol in the initial solution = $$ 40\% 	imes 5 = 2 \, 	ext{litres} $$.

When 1 litre of water is added:  
- Total volume of the new solution = $$ 5 + 1 = 6 \, 	ext{litres} $$.

The strength of alcohol in the new solution is:  
$$
	ext{Alcohol Strength} = \left( \frac{	ext{Alcohol Volume}}{	ext{Total Volume}} ight) 	imes 100 = \left( \frac{2}{6} ight) 	imes 100 = 33 \frac{1}{3} \%.
$$

Thus, the strength of alcohol in the new solution is **$$ 33 \frac{1}{3} \% $$**.
