How much salt must be added to 60kg of a 20 percent solution of salt to increase it to 40 percent solution of salt?
20%
A 280 mL solution is 20 percent salt How much water should be added to make the solution 14 percent salt?
98 mL
How many gallons of a 9 percent salt solution must be mixed with 25 gallons of a 31 percent solution to obtain a 20 percent solution?
25 gallons
How many milligrams of salt must be added to 18 milligrams of a 20 percent salt solution to obtain a 35 percent salt solution?
this question is not hard to answer, but it does require that one make some assumptions. The simplest answer assumes that the 20% salt solution refers to per cent by mass. Thus: a 20% salt solution is one which contains 20 mg salt for every 100 mg solution where the solution consists of a mixture of 20 mg salt plus 80 mg water. A 35% salt solution would contain 35 mg salt for every 65 mg water. Now, assuming that all the water in 18 mg of a 20% salt solution remains in the final solution we see that 18 mg salt solution x 20 mg salt/100 mg salt solution gives 3.6 mg of salt; thus, there are 18 mg total solution - 3.6 mg salt = 14.4 mg water. So the final salt solution must be one that contains 14.4 mg water and enough salt to make it 35% salt by mass. Mathematically, this is written as Z mg salt/(Z mg + 14.4 mg water) = 35/100 This gives Z = 0.35*(Z + 14.4) or Z = 0.35*Z + 0.35*14.4 which is same as Z = 0.35*Z + 5.04 and 0.65*Z = 5.04 so Z = 5.04/0.65 = 7.75 mg total salt needed. We started with 3.6 mg salt, so we must add 7.75 -3.6 = 4.15 mg salt Check: 7.75 mg salt/(7.75 mg salt + 14.4 mg water) = 0.35 or 35% There you go! --assuming that much salt dissolves that amount of water!

What exactly how would you make 100 grams of a saltwater solution that is 20 percent salt tell how many grams of salt and how many grams of water you would need?
20% salt solution is the equivalent of adding 200gr salt in a 800 ml (1000ml -200ml) of water. you now have one liter of a 20% solution.
How many gallons of a 9 percent salt solution must be mixed with 25 gallons of a 31 percent solution to obtain a 20 percent solution?
25 gallons
Which has a higher freezing point a 20 percent salt solution or pure water?
Pure water has a higher freezing point than 20% salt water.
What make the salt melt?
Ice forms when the temperature reaches 32 degrees Fahrenheit. When salt is added the temperature drops so that a 10 per cent salt solution freezes at 20 degrees Fahrenheit and a 20 percent solution freezes at 2 degrees. Salt dissolves into the liquid water in the ice and lowers its freezing point
A pharmacist mixed a 20 percent solution with a 30 percent solution to obtain 100 liters of a 24 percent solution How much of the 20 percent solution did the pharmacist use in the mixture?

How do you make a 20 percent saline solution?
Add 200 grams of the salt to 800 g of water, mix and dissolve, and you've got your desired 20% solution.
determine the mass percent of a 100 mg. salt solution which contains 20g. salt?
Mass solution=100g Mass solution=20g Mass Mass % = (mass Of solute/mass Of solution ) x 100. =(20/100)x100 =1/5 x 100. =100/5 =20%
