The density of two liquids (A and B) is given as 180 kg/m3 and 70 kg/m3, respectively. The two liquids are mixed in a certain proportion and the density of the resulting liquid is 110 kg/m3. How much of liquid B (in grams) does 2 kg of the mixture contain? Assume the volume of the two liquids is additive when mixed.
