HELP: How to obtain a concentration of 20% NaOH ?

[Quebecker]

Hi,

Would someone kind enough to tell me how much NaOH to use in one liter of water to obtain the maximum concentration of 20% ?

This is the electrolyte to be used in my dry-cell and a CCPWM. The goal is to use the lowest amperage.

Thanks in advance

The percentage is calculated by weight, so a 20% solution would be 200 grams of NaOH and 800 grams (cc) of distilled water, wouldn't it?

Thanks, you're right !!!

200 grams of NaOH and 800 ml of distilled water

Using a hydrometer it should be 1.2191 at 20º C.
