You would need to add water. The amount required is entirely dependent on how much volume you currently have. If the current volume is x then the question can be rewritten as:

10%x/(x+a) = 1%

where a is the amount of water you need to add.

Multiply both sides by x+a and you get

10%x = 1%x + 1%a

Subtract 1%x from both sides and get

9%x = 1%a

Divide by 1% and you get

9x = a

Thus, to make a 1 percent solution from a 10 percent solution, you need to add 9 times the current volume of the solution in water.

How much solvent must you add to 1 ml of a 50 percent solution to make a 10 percent solution?

To make a 10 percent solution, you would need to dilute the 50 percent solution by adding 4 ml of solvent to 1 ml of the 50 percent solution. This will result in a total volume of 5 ml with a 10 percent concentration.


How do you make a 10 percent Clorox solution?

10% = 10 parts in 100 or 1 in 10 parts. So if you make a solution, you need to make sure that whatever the amount of Clorox you use, the total amount of solution is 10 times larger. How to do this accurately depends on the measuring equipment you have available and the amount of solution you need to make.


What is 10ml of 10 percent?

A 10ml solution of 10 percent means that there are 10 grams of solute in 100ml of solution. Therefore, in 10ml of this solution, there would be 1 gram of the solute, as 10% of 10ml is 1ml of pure solute, which weighs 1 gram if the solute's density is 1 g/ml.


How do you make 10 percent solution from 20 percent solution?

Take 100 grams of 5% solution and do one of the following:Mix 95 g of it with 5 grams of sugar to end up with 100 g of 10% solution, or, when you are short of sugar:Evaporate 50 grams of water from 100 g of the 5% solution to end up with 50 g of 10% solution.

How can prepare 10 percent ammonia solution from 26 percent ammonia solution?

Check what it is dissolved in first and use the same solvent for dilution. If you want to make a litre of 10% for instance, You want to dilute it 10 in 26 parts or 5 in 13. So 1 litre /13*5 is 384.6ml of 26% ammonia, and dilute to 1 litre with solvent


How you can convert 10 percent sugar solution in 5 percent sugar solution?

To convert a 10% sugar solution into a 5% sugar solution, you would need to dilute the original solution by adding a calculated amount of water. For example, to create 1 liter of 5% sugar solution from a 10% solution, you would mix 500ml of the 10% solution with 500ml of water.


How much of 35 percent HCl would be needed to make 1 percent HCl?
