Question

If a solution has 24g of sugar in 130ml of water, what is its concentration?

Answer 1

Answer: concentration = 15.58%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: mass of sugar = 24 g = 24 ml   [ ∵ 1 g = 1 ml]

Volume of solution = Quantity of water + quantity of solute

= 130 +24 ml

= 154 ml

Concentration = $\dfrac{mass\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ solution}\times100$

$=\dfrac{24}{154}\times 100\\\\\approx15.58\%$

Hence, the concentration =15.58%
