90% and 97% pure acid solutions are mixed to obtain 21 litres of 95% pure acid solution.Find the quantity of each type of acids to be mixed to form the mixture.
V1= volume of 90% solution
V2= volume of 97% solution
Volume of solution =V1+V2=21L
Concentration =95%=(V1×90%+V2×97%)21
So 21×95=90V1+97V2
=90V1+97(21−V1)=97×21−7V1
So V1=6L and V2=15L
