how uch of the acid solution to the chemist use? Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! It can't be done. You can't get a higher
concentration by mixing solutions with
lower concentrations.
Suppose you used all 30% and none of the
10%. You would still never get to 60%
