How do you dilute 68 percent of nitric acid to 200 liters of water if you want 10 percent concentration of nitric acid?

This is the easiest way, though not "scientifically correct":Liters concentrated HNO3 = [ 200 L diluted HNO3 * 10 % ] / [ 68% ] = 29.4 L of the 68%Take the calculated amount and carefully add this to 171 L of water while good mixing!(if you take 30 L (easier measurable!) in stead, then with 170 L water you get about 200 L of 10.2% diluted acid)
