What is the formula for mixing a 100g of Chlorine at99% with __ g of Salt to have a final ratio of 46% Chlorine mixture? \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "Assuming the \"Salt\" has zero percent Chlorine in it you get: \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Equation: \n" ); document.write( "Chlorine + Chlorine = Chlorine \n" ); document.write( "0.99*100 + 0x = 0.46(100+x) \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 100 to get: \n" ); document.write( "99*100 + 0 = 46*100 + 46x \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "46x = 53*100 \n" ); document.write( "x = 115.21 grams of Salt (amt of Salt needed for the mixture) \n" ); document.write( "==================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "============ \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
