D
________1. 5% acetic acid in water (vinegar)
________2.
D 40 % ethyl alcohol
________3.
C 10mL soy sauce in 20 mL vinegar

Units of Concentration
Percent volume
% volume = volume solute (ml) x 100
volume solution (ml)
Percent mass
% mass = mass solute (g) x 100
mass solution (g)
Example 1:
What is the percent by volume concentration of a
solution in which 75.0 ml of ethanol is diluted to a
volume of 250.0 ml?
Example 2:
What volume of acetic acid is present in a bottle containing
350.0 ml of a solution which measures 5.00%
concentration?
x = 0.05
350.0 ml
x = 17.5 ml
Units of Concentration
Example 3:
Find the percent by mass in which 41.0 g of NaCl is
dissolved in 331 grams of water.
41 g x 100 = 11.0%
372 g
Example 4
If a solution that has a mass of 800.0
grams contains 20.0 grams of NaCl,
what is the concentration using Percent
by Mass?
% by mass = mass solute x 100
mass of solution
Answer: 2.5%
7. A sugar solution has a mass of 500
grams. The solution contains 200
