A solution of 20.91 % by weight H2SO4 has a specific gravity of 1.150. What is the normality of this solution? Water is added to dilute this solution to a solution of 3.03% by weight H2SO4 (SG= 1.020). What is the new normality of the resulting solution and how were they mixed? (Assume 100 mL of the original solution was used.)
