Answer: The current common definition of an acid and a base is based upon how the substance releases or attracts hydrogen ions (H+). Acids release H+ ions that can turn neutral molecules into positively charged ions, while bases can attract H+ ions from neutral molecules to produce negatively charged ions.
Explanation:
There are several ways of expressing concentration of solution. Few of them are listed below
1) mass percentage
2) volume percentage
3) Molarity
4) Normality
5) Molality
In most of the drugs, concentration is expressed either in terms of mass percentage or volume percentage. For, solid in liquid type systems, mass percentage is convenient way of expressing concentration, while for liquid in liquid type solutions, expressing concentration in terms of volume percentage is preferred. Present system is an example of liquid in liquid type solution
Here, concentration of H2O2 is given antiseptic = 3.0 % v/v
It implies that, 3ml H2O2 is present in 100 ml of solution
Thus, 400 ml of solution would contain 4 X 3 = 12 ml H2O2
