A solution containing 45% water is mixed with another solution containing 10% bromine. If the chemist needs 30 liter of the mixture, how many liters of each solution is needed to make a 34.5%solution?
First we need to find out 34.5% of 30 liters which is 10.35 liters.The ratios of water to bromine is 4.5:1.So we divide 10.35/5.5=1.88 litersSo we know that bromine is 1.88 liters and water is 8.47 liters.
