Hi,

how much pure acid should be mixed with 5 gallons of a 30% acid solution

in order to get a 50% acid solution?

    acid + acid = acid

 

            

                  x = 2 gal



Note:  2gal + 1.5gal = 3.5gal                      

Set Up on ALL mixture problems is to have the same amount of the key ingredient on both sides of the EQ
