You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Starter amount of soda solution is 500*1.08 grams, 540 grams of 8% m/m soda.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You want to add some x amount of 62.9% m/m WATER, which is 37.1% SODA, to the 540 grams to get 15% m/m soda. To this extent, we are no longer interested in volumes.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I said this, which was WRONG------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28540%2A8%2Bx%2A62.9%29%2F%28x%2B540%29=15\"
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for x, the grams of the \"Crystal Soda\" 62.9% m/m to add.
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I should have said this, much more correct---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28540%2A8%2B37.1%2Ax%29%2F%28x%2B540%29=15\"
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for x, the grams of \"Crystal Soda\", 62.9% m/m water, 37.1% SODA
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "One would imagine that Crystal Soda is the name of a concentrated carbonated drink. On the other hand, 8% sodium hydroxide has a density very close to what you gave. 62.9%, concentration of the water, 37.1% m/m of SODA.
