Question 1067536: A chemistry student wants to obtain 18 MLS of a 53% salt solution. He currently has 50% and 60% salt solutions on hand. How much of each solution will need to be mixed together to yield 18mL of a 53% salt solution? Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The chemistry student will not find any such 53% , 50%, nor 60% salt solution. At least not in liquid solution form. Granular mixture maybe, but the measurement would NOT be done in milliliters.
