A solution consists of 5 grams of the sugar dextrose dissolved in 100 milliliters of water. Since 100 milliliters of pure water at 4°C weights 100 grams, this is commonly called a 5% dextrose solution.
This manufacturing line will mix the dextrose with deionized water until dissolved and then place the mixture into 250 milliliter solution containers (important). The amount of dextrose used per container will therefore be enough to yield a concentration of 5 grams dextrose per 100 milliliters water (5g dextrose / 100 mL water).
This manufacturing line has been engineered to produce 100 containers per hour.
The plant intends to run the line for 20 hours per day on the weekdays (5 days) and then shut the line down for replenishment of water and dextrose and performing of cleaning and routine maintenance on the weekends (2 days).
The plant needs to store enough water near the manufacturing line for one week of production. They have 4 unused water storage tanks available. The sizes are as follows: 250 gallons, 500 gallons, 1,000 gallons, and 2,000 gallons. Based on your calculations which one of these tanks would you choose?
