Voltaic cell solutions

Hello
I just want to check this. If I'm making acidified solutions to use in a voltaic cell do i add 15mL of 0.1M sulfuric to 1L solution I'm making. Eg Zinc sulfate etc. Or should I use a higher conc. of acid???
I'd appreciate your help.
Thanks Krysia

Hi
One of my teachers always has trouble getting the amylase to work. We get it from Southern Biological. Does anyone else encounter this problem.
