A scientist has two kinds of solutions. The first solution is Solution A, which is an $80\%$ acid solution. The second solution

is Solution B, which is a $30\%$ acid solution. (a) Find the amount of Solution A (in mL) that must be added to $500$ mL of Solution B in order to produce a $70\%$ acid solution. (b) Find the amount of Solution A and Solution B (in mL) that can be combined in order to form a $100$ mL solution that is $50\%$ acid. (c) Does there exist a combination of Solution A and Solution B that is $90\%$ acid?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a ) Let the volume required be v .

v x .8 + 500 x .3 / ( v + 500 ) = .7

.8 v + 150 = .7 v + 350

.1 v = 200

v = 2000 mL

b )

Let the volume of solution A  required be v . The volume of solution of B required will be 100 - v

v x .8 + ( 100 - v ) x .3 / 100 = .5

.8 v + 30 - .3 v = 50

.5 v = 20

v = 40 mL

volume of solution B = 60 mL .

c )

It is not possible because 90 % is more than 80 % the concentration of solution A . Any mixture will have concentration less than 80 % .

volume of solution B = 60 mL

Basile [38]

ANSWER:

We know that the sum of angles of same sides in parallel lines are supplementary(180°).

So, ∠6 + 24° = 180°

  • ∠6 = 180° - 24°
  • ∠6 = 156°.

Divide the pentagon into a triangle and rectangle.  

Rectangle:  12in*6in=72in^2
Triangle:  (12in*5in)/2=30in^2
 72in^2+30in^2=102in^2

What is the solution to the system y + x = 3 and y - x = 1? *
Oxana [17]
Since y + x = 3, then we could say one of them equals 2 while the other is 1. y - x = 1, then we can say 3 - 1 = 2, so y would be 2 and x would be 1

The volume would be 4.19 because you would do V=(4/3)(pi)(1^3) :) thats how you get your answer :)
