In a lab, a 30% acid solution is being mixed with a 5% acid solution to create a 10% acid solution. what is the ratio of the amount of the 30% solution to the amount of 5% solution used to create the 10% solution? 1: 3 1: 4 1: 5 1: 6

Option B. 1 : 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a lab 30% acid solution and 5% acid solution were mixed to prepare 10% acid solution.

We have to calculate the ratio of both the acids should be mixed to prepare 10% acid solution.

Let the volume of 30% solution was used = x ml

and the volume of 5% acid was used = y ml

Therefore the equation will form as

30%.x + 5%.y = 10%.(x + y)

0.30x + 0.05y = 0.10(x + y)

Now we transfer the similar terms in one side of the equation.

0.30x - 0.10x = 0.10y - 0.05y

0.20x = .05y

x : y :: 1 : 4

Therefore solutions will be mixed in a ratio of 1 : 4

Option B. 1 : 4 is the right answer.  

this is a very good question

i got a hair cut today from my mom not to flex just to flex kim jon un is one rad fellow i'd say you'd need to take the hairline in kinda like a box shape like someone rammed a lego brick into your head. from there you really need to take the top up keeping with that boxy aesthetic, finally coat the whole thing with gel if your country economics are failing or whatever you can just coat it with the starving children's food rations. about 5 orphans per strand is a good ratio. good luck with the fresh cut my dude
