It depends, is the solution 15% salt or 15% saturatedwith salt? If it is 15% salt, is is 85% water. If it is 15% saturated, it is 5.385%.

What if a semipermeable membrane has a 2 percent salt solution on one side a 15 percent salt solutionWhat will mostly occur?

Osmosis of water from a low concentration of salt to a high concentration


If table salt has a solubility of 36 g of salt in 100 g of water at 40C If 15 g of the salt are added to 50 g of water at the same temperature is the resulting solution saturated or unsaturated?

How much pure water must be mixed with 10 liters of a 25 percent acid solution to reduce it to a 10 percent acid solution?

I honestly have no idea at all...but I looked it up and saw that people explained it out to be 15 liters... I have this question on my test...so I'm putting 15.


How many mg of salt do you need to make a salt solution of 3 ml if you need 1 gm of salt to make a solution of 2 ml?

Proportionally you will need 1 and 1/2 mg of salt.


In which direction would osmosis occur if 15 percent sugar solution is separated from a 25 percent sugar solution?

It would flow toward the weaker solution. The intent of osmosis is to gain equilibrium, so the 15 percent solution would gain sugar content until, if you allowed the osmosis to go to completion, the two solutions had the same amount of sugar in them. "Going to completion" doesn't necessarily mean 20 percent concentration on both sides. If you were to make a gallon bag out of dialysis membrane, fill it with 15 percent solution and put a stirrer in it, then drop it into a 25,000-gallon reaction vessel full of 25 percent solution with a stirrer in it, you might wind up with 24.9999999999 percent sugar solution in both bags.

If you have a 300ml of a 15 percent hydrochloric acid solution in dilute the solution to 1000ml with sterile water what percent should appear on the label?

The concentration of the diluted solution will be 15(300/1000) = 4.5 %, if the percent is expressed on a weight/volume basis.


How do you dilute 500 gallons of 31 percent to 15 percent?

To dilute 500 gallons of a 31% solution to a 15% solution you would add 533.33 gallons of the dilutant. For example, if you have 500 gallons of a 31% saline solution you would add 533.33 gallons of water to create 1033.33 gallons of a 15% saline solution.


What is 15ww solution?

I think you may have misspelled your question. This always makes it a bit more difficult to answer. But I'm going to make the assumption that your solution was labelled "15% w/w" Is that about right? Well, then, what that means is that your solution contains 15 parts by weight of of the solute, and 85 parts by weight of the solvent. For example, a solution of 15 grams of salt and 85 grams of water is a 15% w/w solution of salt in water. By the way, w/w means "weight in weight".


How does adding salt to water affect it freezing point?

Adding salt to water increases its density and lowers its freezing point. ---------------------- I've just completed a repeated experiment on the effects of salt and the freezing point of water. A saturated salt solution will not freeze at -15 degrees Celsius (my freezer temperature). At exactly -21.1 degrees Celsius the salt begins to crystallize out of the solution, along with the ice, until the solution completely freezes.
