Check my calculations

I am using K2SO4, If i dissolve 50g in 500ml water and dose a 600 litre tank with 100ml of said solution, will this increase potassium by 8ppm?

Hiya, result would be 7.48ppm by my calculations.

Thanks John, thats close enough

 

[John q]

Also worth noting it's getting close to the solubility threshold 111g/l so might take a while to dissolve.

@John q So you think its best to lessen the amount of potassium and increase the dose accordingly?

Yes might be wise to go with 25g and add 200ml of solution.
