Hello,
I believe I have seen some discussion on the forum about adding water before dropping with smb - 2 or 3 times the acid volume?
E.g. If I started with 250ML of HCL 61.45% and added 5ML of nitric acid 58%, should I add water to bring the total volume up to 510ML (255ML * 2)?
And I'm also curious, what is the purpose of adding all that water?
Thank you!
Bill
