Question

Two aqueous hydrogen bromide solutions containing 1.00 wt% HBr (SG = 1.0041) and 40.0 wt% HBr (SG = 1.3736) are mixed to form a 2.86 M HBr solution (SG =1.1557).

What feed rate of the 40.0 wt% HBr solution would be required to produce 1.00 x 10 kg/hr of product? What is the feed ratio of liters of 1.00 wt% HBr solution to liters of 40.0 wt% HBr solution?
