Question

If a solution has 24g of sugar in 130ml of water, what is its concentration?

Answer 1

Answer: concentration = 15.58%

Explanation:

Given: mass of sugar = 24 g = 24 ml [ ∵ 1 g = 1 ml]

Volume of solution = Quantity of water + quantity of solute

= 130 +24 ml

= 154 ml

Concentration =
`(mass\ of\ solute)/(Volume\ of\ solution)*100`

`=(24)/(154)* 100\\\\\approx15.58\%`

Hence, the concentration =15.58%
