Answer: Option D

Quantity of alcohol in vessel P = 62.5/100 * 2 = 5/4 litresQuantity of alcohol in vessel Q = 87.5/100 * 4 = 7/2 litresQuantity of alcohol in the mixture formed = 5/4 + 7/2 = 19/4 = 4.75 litresAs 6 litres of mixture is formed, ratio of alcohol and water in the mixture formed = 4.75 : 1.25 = 19 : 5.
