Answer:
I'm pretty sure that's right.
Explanation:
Answer:
7.5 L of the 10% and 22.5 L of the 30% acid solution, she should mix.
Explanation:
Let the volume of 10% acid solution used to make the mixture = x L
So, the volume of 30% acid solution used to make the mixture = y L
Total volume of the mixture = <u>x + y = 30 L .................. (1)
</u>
For 10% acid solution:
C₁ = 10% , V₁ = x L
For 30% acid solution :
C₂ = 30% , V₂ = y L
For the resultant solution of sulfuric acid:
C₃ = 25% , V₃ = 30 L
Using
C₁V₁ + C₂V₂ = C₃V₃
10×x + 30×y = 25×30
So,
<u>x + 3y = 75 .................. (2)
</u>
Solving 1 and 2 we get,
<u>x = 7.5 L
</u>
<u>y = 22.5 L</u>
