t = number of liters of 30% acid solution

s = number of liters of 60% acid solution

t+s=57

.30t+.60s=.50*57

t=57-s

.30(57-s)+.60s=.50*57

.30*57 -.30s +.60s = .50*57

.30s = .50*57 - .30*57 = .20*57

s = .20*57/.30 = 38 liters of 30% solution

t = 57 - s = 57-38 = 19 liters of 60% solution

A mixture of 40 liters of milk and water contains 10 percent water How much water should be added to this so that water may be 20 percent in the new mixture?

If you're talking about 10 liters of water and not percent, then 10 liters. But then you'll have 60 liters of mixture. It would be 2/5 or 0.4 x 50 = 20 this would make a mix of 20/50. Waterman


A chemist needs 4 liters of a 50 percent salt solution All she has available is a 20 percent salt solution and a 70 percent salt solution How much of each of the two solutions should she mix to obtain?

You will need more data about all densities (in kg/Litre)and you must be sure of using mass% = (g solute)/(100 g solution)Solve two equations for both X and Y:4*d50*50 = X*d20*20 + Y*d70*70 (based on salt mass balance in diff. sol'n.)4*d50 = X*d20 + Y*d70 (based on solutions mass balance)In which:dm = density of the 'm'% salt solution in kg/Litre)X and Y = volume of the 20% and 70% salt solutions respectively


How much of water should be add to obtain a solution that is twenty percent antifreeze?

To obtain a solution that is twenty percent antifreeze, you would add 4 parts water to 1 part antifreeze. This means that for every 1 part of antifreeze, you would add 4 parts of water. This would result in a total of 5 parts of solution, with 1 part being antifreeze and 4 parts being water, achieving a solution that is twenty percent antifreeze.

How many liters of a 20 percent solution of saline should a nurse mix with 10 liters of a 50 percent solution to obtain a mixture that is 40 percent saline?

Let x = the amount of 20% solution Let x + 10 = the amount of the final solution. So we have: (.20)x + (.50)(10) = (.40)(x + 10) .20x + 5 = .40x + 4 .20x = 1 x = 5 liters of 20% solution of saline.

Jorge has four liters of 30 percent acid solution how much water should he add to make 25 percent acid solution'?

Jorge needs to add 2 liters of water to the 30% acid solution to make a 25% acid solution. This can be calculated using a dilution formula: initial acid amount / final total amount = final acid concentration.

How many liters of a 7 percent solution of salt should be added to a 19 percent solution in order to obtain 456 liters of a 15 percent solution?

This is an algebra problem. There will be 2 equations and 2 unknowns. Let x = amount of 7% solution, and y = amount of 19% solution. .07x + .19y = .15*456. x + y = 456; or x = 456-y which will substitute into the first equation. .07(456-y) +.19y = .15*456. 31.92-.07y+.19y = 68.4. .12y = 36.48. y = 304L (amount of 19% solution to add). x = 456-y. x = 456 - 304. x = 152L (amount of 7% solution to add).
