Solution:-
Given that, a chemist has only 50% and 75% solutions on hand. She needs to mix up 50 gallons of a 60% acid solution.
We have to determine the number of gallons she should mix together inorder to obtain 50 gallons of a 60% acid solution.
Let,
= gallons of the 50% solution
= gallons of the 75% solution
The total volume of the new mixture is 50 gallons.
Therefore,
According to question,
Each gallon of 50% solution contributes 0.5 gallon of acid, and each gallon of the 75% solution contributes 0.75 gallon of acid. The final mixture needs to have a concentration of 60% acid.
Hence,
Hence,
She should mix
gallons of the 50% solution and
gallons of the 75% solution.

A chemist needs to determine the concentration of a solution of nitric acid, HNO3. She puts 905 mL of the acid in a flask along with a few drops of indicator. She then slowly adds 0.600 M Ba(OH)2 to the flask until the solution turns pink, indicating the equivalence point of the titration. She notes that 205 mL of Ba(OH)2 was needed to reach the equivalence point. a) How many moles of Ba(OH)2 are present in 205 mL of 0.600...
A chemist needs to determine the concentration of a solution of nitric acid, HNO3. She puts 875 mLof the acid in a flask along with a few drops of indicator. She then slowly adds 0.200 MBa(OH)2 to the flask until the solution turns pink, indicating the equivalence point of the titration. She notes that 145 mL of Ba(OH)2 was needed to reach the equivalence point. Solution map In this titration, the concentration of base is known and can be used...

A chemist needs to determine the concentration of a sulfuric acid solution by titration with a standard sodium hydroxide solution. He has a 0.1435 M standard sodium hydroxide solution. He takes a 25.00 mL sample of the original acid solution and dilutes it to 250.0 mL. Then, he takes a 10.00 mL sample of the dilute acid solution and titrates it with the standard solution. The endpoint was reached after the addition of 13.55 mL of the standard solution. What...
