I need how to solve this problem using a quantity rate table, I can solve it once I have the table filled out I'm just having issues determining where each piece of information goes in the table. Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! This is my method:
Let = ml of water to be added
You end up with the same amount of
acid as you started with
------------------------------
[ ml of acid in solution ] / [ total ml you end up with ] = [ final % of acid ]
325 ml of water must be added

Hope this helps
