Answer:
14 ml of water
Explanation:
To find the volume you need to dilute the concentration of a solution, you should use the formula C1 x V1 = C2 x V2 in which:
C1 = initial concentration ( in this case 60 %)
V1 = initial volume ( in this case 70 ml)
C2 = Final concentration ( you want to dilute until 50 %)
V2 = final volume ( the variable you want to search)
So you need to:
1.- Isolate the variable you want to find: V2 = (C1 x V1) / C2
2.- Substitute data: V2 = (60% x 70 ml) /50 %
3.- You do the math, in this case is 84 ml.
4.- Remember that you have a initial volume of 70 ml, so the difference (84 ml - 70 ml = 14 ml) is the volume you need to add to dilute your solution.
