Glucose 27% Fructose 37% Sucrose 7% Water 19% Mixing H Glucose 35% Fructose 33% Sucrose 6% Water 16% H H

The document describes mixing two types of honey, H1 and H2, with different compositions to achieve a glucose to water ratio of 1.7 in the blend. Honey H1 contains 35% glucose, 33% fructose, 6% sucrose, and 16% water. Honey H2 contains 27% glucose, 37% fructose, 7% sucrose, and 19% water. The solution involves drawing a process diagram, selecting a basis of 1000kg for the blend calculation, and writing mass balances for the overall components and glucose.

Exercise 3.4
According to some indications, crystallization of honey is avoided if the ratio of
glucose to water is equal to 1.70. Given the composition of two honeys, find the
proportions in which they have to be mixed so that the ratio of glucose to water
in the blend is 1.7. What will be the composition of the blend?
