Question

A chemist is using 367milliliters of a solution of acid and water. If 18.4% of the solution is acid, how many milliliters of acid are there? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

For this case we know that the total amount of solution including water and acid is V=367 ml

And we know that the % of acid in the solution is 18.4% so then we can find the number of ml of acid witht this operation:

`Acid = 0.184 *367 ml = 67.528 ml \approx 67.5 ml`
