Answer:
110 ml of 59% solution is mixed with 60 ml oh 93# solution to get the desired solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
170 ml of 71 solution is to be made.
Let x be the amount of 59% solution used and y be the amount of 93% solution used.
Total volume = 170 ml
Thus, we can write the equation,
[tex]x + y = 170\\y= 170-x[/tex]
Desired solution = 71%
Thus, we can write the equation:
[tex]170(0.71) = x(0.59) + y(0.93)\\120.7 = 0.59x + 0.93y[/tex]
Solving the two equations, we get,
[tex]120.7 = 0.59x + 0.93(170-x)\\120.7 = 0.59x + 158.1-0.93x\\0.34x =37.4 \\x = 110\\y = 170-110-60[/tex]
Thus, 110 ml of 59% solution is mixed with 60 ml oh 93# solution to get the desired solution.
Answer:
110 ml of 59% solution is mixed with 60 ml oh 93# solution to get the desired solution.
