a.
Carefully add 12 oz of muriatic acid to one of the 5-gallon buckets to create a roughly 1% solution of 20 Baume muriatic acid.
Warning:
Always be careful when adding muriatic acid to water; this combination creates an
exothermic reaction, which gives off heat. Failure to take care may result in serious
injury.
b. Label this bucket "ACID" and set it aside so that it will not be knocked over.
