After doing intense mathematics during my double history I realised that when you add two solutions that both have a percentage acid of 5.....your solution will still have an % acid of 5.
So this is what i mean...
% of acid in Lemon = 5%
% of acid in Vinegar = 5%
∴ IN a solution of 100mL of lemon & 100mL of vinegar there will be 5mL of acid from the lemon & 5mL from the vinegar
∴The % of acid in the solution is: (5+5) x 100 = 5%
200
pft...so as a result I have decided to use water instead! Water has a 0% of acid! So if I add the two together i should have a % acid of 2.5%....
So this is what i mean...
% of acid in Water = 0%
% of acid in Vinegar = 5%
∴ IN a solution of 100mL of water & 100mL of vinegar there will be 0mL of acid from the water & 5mL from the vinegar
∴The % of acid in the solution is: (0+5) x 100 = 2.5%
200
So! Now that I have convinced myself so much that that works....even if it doesn't im goning through with it.% of acid in Water = 0%
% of acid in Vinegar = 5%
∴ IN a solution of 100mL of water & 100mL of vinegar there will be 0mL of acid from the water & 5mL from the vinegar
∴The % of acid in the solution is: (0+5) x 100 = 2.5%
200
So now,
I'm going to have three solutions and this is what they're gona have in each:
'A' - Water solution (200mL of water) = 0% acid
'B' - Water/ Vinegar solution (100mL of vinegar + 100mL of water) = 2.5% acid (in theory)
'C' - Vinegar solution (200mL of vinegar) = 5% acid
with the hope of starting her experiment in good time,

Looking good thus far! Hope the floating apples isn't causing too much grief! Should be good though.
