The final weight/weight concentration is 1% when 1 g of active ingredient powder is mixed with 99 g of white petrolatum. Solution: 1 g (active)/ 100 g (total); 1 g,100 g=0.01; [ 0.01*100=1%. ]

Answer:

99g

Step-by-step explanation:

This establish the fact that the 1g added to 99g of white petrolatum maintains the weight as a result of the active ingredient being addictive, it would only mix with the powder concentration and not increase the total or gross weight.
