Question

mei has 60 milliliters of a solution that is 35% nitric acid. how many milliliters of nitric acid does the solution contain?

Answer 1

21 milliliters of nitric acid.

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of the solution is,
`V =60\textrm{ ml}`

Percentage of nitric acid in the solution is 35 % of
`V`

Therefore, volume of nitric acid in the solution is =
`(35)/(100)*60=(2100)/(100)=21\textrm{ ml}`

Hence, the solution contain 21 milliliters of nitric acid.
