You can put this solution on YOUR website!
In other words, the given solution is 50% v/v and you want to know how much water added will make 25% v/v. \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "1 cm^3 is same as 1 milliliter.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let y = volume of water to add.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"500%2A50%2F%28500%2By%29=25\"$ ------You need to understand this equation.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"25000=25%28500%2By%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1000=500%2By\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=500\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
