20% of 3=0.2*3=0.6 L of acid
70% of 2=0.7*2=1.4 L of acid
1.4+0.6=2 L of acid
3L+2L=5L total amount of solution
2/5=40/100=40% acid solution

asked 08/04/20You mix 3L of 20% acid solution with 2L of 70% solution of the same acid. What will be the final concentration?
(concentration = amount of pure substance/total amount of solution)
submit the answer as a decimal with two decimal places. For example 4.00 or 5.31etc.
