Question 528824: Using a 43% crystal grade of NaF (Sodium Fluoride) in a feeder the operator must apply enough chemical to a 50 gallon feeder tank to get all of the crystal NaF to completely dissolve or go into solution. The fluoride concentration in the feeder is 17,200 mg/L (1.72% fluoride ion), how many lbs of NaF should be added to the 50 gallon feeder tank to achieve a concentration of 17,200 mg/L?
