Answer:

Percent of water in the mixture=88%

Which is 81.07 square inches of the total volume

Explanation:

Volume of the flask=πr^2h

π=3.142

radius=diameter/2

=3.71/2

=1.855

height=8.52 inches

Volume of the flask=πr^2h

=3.142*(1.855)^2*8.52

=3.142*3.441025*8.52

=92.115688686

Approximately 92.12 square inches

Flask contains 12% acid solution and the remaining volume is water

Percentage of water =Total percentage - acid solution percentage

=100%-12%

=88%

Percentage of Water =88%

Percentage of the mixture by volume is water=88% of the total volume

=88/100*92.12

=81.0656 square inches

Approximately 81.07 square inches
