Answer #1

Total mass of solution required = 2 kg = 2000 g

Mass of phosphoric acid in teh solution = 0.05 x 2000 = 100 g

Now it is given that technical grade concentrated phosphoric acid is available that contains 85.2% pure acid

=> 100 g of technical grade contains 85.2 g phosphoric acid

For 85.2 g phosphoric acid, mass of technical grade concentrated phosphoric acid needed = 100

=> For 100 g phosphoric acid, mass of technical grade concentrated phosphoric acid needed = (100 / 85.2) x 100 = 117.37 g

=> Mass of technical grade acid = 117.37 g

Mass of Water = 2000 - 117.37 = 1882.63 g

I need to make 100 mL of 0.4 wt% phosphoric, 0 2 wt% chronic acid, 99.4 wt% deionized water solution. I have our chromic acid pellets and 85% phosphoric acid. I know this phosphoric acid does not have a density of 1g/ml because I weighed 40 ml of it to be 70 some grams. How much grams of chromic acid and 85% phosphoric acid do I need to weigh out in order to make this solution?
