How much pure acid should be mixed with 4 gallons of a 50 percent acid sollution in order to get an 80 percent acid solution?

Assuming that you mean that your pure acid is twice as concentrated as your 50% acid. Pretending your pure acid is at 1 mol/gallon and the 50% acid is 0.5 mol/gallon1 molgallon-1 * x gallons = x mol0.5 molgallon-1 * 4 gallons = 2 mol(x + 2) mol for (x+4) gallons = 0.8(x+2) mol / (x+4) gallons= 0.8 molgallon-1x + 2 = 0.8x + 3.20.2x = 1.2x = 6add 6 gallons of pure acid to the 4 gallons to make 10 gallons of 80% acid solution


If you have a 300ml of a 15 percent hydrochloric acid solution in dilute the solution to 1000ml with sterile water what percent should appear on the label?

The concentration of the diluted solution will be 15(300/1000) = 4.5 %, if the percent is expressed on a weight/volume basis.


What is sudsy ammonia?

Sudsy ammonia is just a mixture of regular household ammonia solution, water, and liquid detergent. One recipe is 2/3 water, 1/3 "full-strength" household ammonia, and a squirt of liquid detergent. A link for full instructions should be below this.


How much of an 18 percent solution of sulfuric acid should be added to 360 ml of a 10 percent solution to obtain a 15 percent solution?

To determine the amount of 18% solution to add: Let x = volume of 18% solution to be added. 0.18x + 0.10(360) = 0.15(x + 360) Solving for x, you would need to add 75 ml of the 18% solution to the 360 ml of 10% solution to obtain a 15% solution.


What is a description for ammonia cleaning solution?

Ammonia cleaning solution is a powerful alkaline liquid often used to cut through grease, grime, and dirt on various surfaces. It is effective for cleaning glass, countertops, and bathroom fixtures. However, it should be used with caution due to its strong and potentially irritating fumes.

How much pure acid should be mixed with 6 gallons of a 50 percent acid solution in order to get an 80 percent acid solution?

50% acid in a 6 gallon solution means that 3 gallons are acid. 9 gallons more acid will give you a total of 12 gallons of acid in a 15 gallon solution. 12 is 80% of 15.

How much water should be added to 1 gallon of pure antifreeze to obtain a solution that is 60 percent antifreeze?

2 gallons.


How much water should be mixed with 2 gallons of a 50 percent acid solution in order to get an 2 percent acid solution?

To get a 2% acid solution, you need to dilute the 50% acid solution with water. Since the final volume is 2 gallons, you will need to mix 2 gallons of water with the 2 gallons of 50% acid solution to get a 2% acid solution.

How many gallons of 80 percent solution must be mixed with 100 gallons of a 15 percent antifreeze solution to get a mixture that is 70 percent antifreeze?

For these types of problems, I recommend finding the initial amount of antifreeze. To find this value, multiply the percentage of antifreeze (15%) by the amount of solution (100 gallons). This gets:0.15*100=15 gallons of antifreeze*Now we need make an equation that represents this problem. We let x be the number of gallons of 80% solution.(.80x+15)/(x+100)=0.70The top of the equation represents the amount of antifreeze, while the bottom is the total volume of the solution. If we divide these values, we should get the final concentration %, .70.Now we just need to manipulate the equation algebraically:.80x+15=.70x+70.10x=55x=550 gallons of 80% solution*If the concentration of a solution is given in percentage, it is probably referring to mass, not volume. Because of this, the values for the volume of antifreeze are actually untrue. But because the density of both substances remains the same, the final answer should be correct.

How much water should be added to 30 gallons of a solution that is 70 percent antifreeze in order to get a mixture that is 60 percent antifreeze?

First off do not use tap water. Use only distilled water. You will need to add 3 gallons of distilled water to the solution to get 60% antifreeze and 40% distilled water or a 60/40 mix.
