Ten pints of 15% salt solution are mixed with 15 pints of 10% salt solution. What is the concentration of the resulting solution?
Answer (2)
The concentration of the resulting solution is 0.12, or 12%. ;
The concentration of the resulting solution is 12%. This is achieved by calculating the total amount of salt from each solution and dividing it by the total volume of the mixed solutions. Finally, the concentration is expressed as a percentage of the total solution volume.
