Calculate how much 10% acid solution and how much pure acid must be mixed to end up with exactly 12 liters of 30% acid solution.
Rounding to the nearest hundredth of a liter, you'll need ___ liters of the pure acid.
1 answer:
Answer:
2.67 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "a" represent the number of liters of pure acid needed to make the desired solution. Then the amount of acid in the mix is ...
(100%)x +(10%)(12 -x) = (30%)(12)
(90%)x = 12(20%) . . . . . subtract (10%)(12)
x = 12(2/9) . . . . . divide by 90%
x = 2 2/3 . . . liters
You'll need 2.67 liters of the pure acid.
