Question

A chemist is using 357 milliliters of a solution of acid and water. If 18.6%of the solution is acid, how many milliliters of acid are there? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 66.4 milliliters of acid in the solution

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of the solution of acid and water = 357

Percentage composition of acid in the solution = 18.6%

Amount of acid in the solution = (18.6/100) x 357

Amount of acid in the solution = 66.402 milliliters

Amount of acid in the solution = 66.4 milliliters (to the nearest tenth)

There are 66.4 milliliters of acid in the solution
