Answer:

Percent volume-volume (%(v/v)) = 100 x (volume of solute / volume of solution)

Percent volume-volume (%(v/v)) = 100 x (volume of solute / volume of solution)ex. 20 ml of methanol dissolved in enough water to make 200 ml of solution would result in a 10 % methanol solution

Percent volume-volume (%(v/v)) = 100 x (volume of solute / volume of solution)ex. 20 ml of methanol dissolved in enough water to make 200 ml of solution would result in a 10 % methanol solution-the units may be any units of volume you chose - as long as they are consistent

Percent volume-volume (%(v/v)) = 100 x (volume of solute / volume of solution)ex. 20 ml of methanol dissolved in enough water to make 200 ml of solution would result in a 10 % methanol solution-the units may be any units of volume you chose - as long as they are consistent-this concentration unit is most often used when mixing two liquids
