Dilution of liquids with the mixing cross (Pearson Square)
Author und Editor: Dr. Andreas Kokott (About the Author)
Beekeepers regularly use acids and alkalis in different concentrations. One common challenge is preparing the correct concentration from a stronger solution.
A typical example is formic acid: you may have an 80% solution but need a 60% solution for your application. The mixture cross is a simple and reliable method for calculating the correct mixing ratio without complicated formulas.
A detailed step-by-step explanation would be too extensive for a blog post. Therefore, we have created a free seven-page A4 PDF that explains the mixture cross in a clear and practical way, including examples of how to dilute acids and alkalis correctly.
