You can put this solution on YOUR website!
50% strength means you have equal parts of h2o2 and water.
\n" ); document.write( "25% strength means you have 1 part of h2o2 for 3 parts of water.
\n" ); document.write( "you will have to add double the amount of water that you currently have to reach the new percentages.
\n" ); document.write( "assume you have 1 quart of h2o2 and 1 quart of water.
\n" ); document.write( "the total solution is 2 quarts.
\n" ); document.write( "1 quarts of h2o2 is 50% of 2 quarts of solution.
\n" ); document.write( "now you add 2 more quarts of water.
\n" ); document.write( "your new solution is 1 quarts of h2o2 and 3 quarts of water.
\n" ); document.write( "this is a total of 4 quarts of solution.
\n" ); document.write( "1 quart of h2o2 is 25% of 4 quarts of the new solution.
\n" ); document.write( "you need to add double the amount of water that you currently have.
\n" ); document.write( "
