daniel wants to make a 2% saline solution. He has already poured 12ml of pure water into a beaker. how many ml of a 8% saline solution must he add to this to create the desired mixture?
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "water + water = water
\n" ); document.write( "12 + 0.92x = 0.98(12+x)
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "12 + 0.92x = 0.98*12 + 0.98x
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "0.02*12 = 0.06x
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4 ml
