Battery Acid? Sulfuric.

Any idea what the percent is of regular car battery acid?

35 per cent Sulfuric Acid, or there abouts, in a proper 12 volts car
battery. What are you going to do with it?

I suspect he needs a 10% solution for some photographic purpose
(pemanganate, dichromate, and copper sulfate bleach formulae all call
for X ml of sulfuric acid without calling out the strength, apparently
assuming we'll know what strength is "standard photographic" -- I've
wondered what %, molality, molarity, or normality I'd need 10 ml of).

whatever current equipment and technology furthers his creative
objectives, without sacrificing the ability to make his own decisions.

I figured it was about that, the guy at the auto battery supply said it
was somewhat stronger than vinegar. I figured since glacial acetic
is around 28% that this must be around the same. I am going to use it
to process control E6,.....if my Ph meter its functional.

Hum? I think that means I want a 3 to 1 ratio to get a 1% solution.

Huh?? If you have 35%, you'd need to dilute it 1:34 to get a 1% solution.
