since water is 0% acid,
.40(20) + 0x = .30(20+x)
Now just solve for x
Or, since you want 3/4 the concentration, the final volume must be 4/3 the starting volume.
.40(20) + 0x = .30(20+x)
Now just solve for x
Or, since you want 3/4 the concentration, the final volume must be 4/3 the starting volume.
