Question

The formula for concentration of solution in terms of volume by volume percentage is:

• A. $\frac{\text{volume of solvent}}{\text{volume of solute}}\times 100$
• B. $\frac{\text{volume of solution}}{\text{volume of solute}}\times 100$
• C. $\frac{\text{volume of solute}}{\text{volume of solution}}\times 100$
• D. $\frac{\text{volume of solute}}{\text{volume of solvent}}\times 100$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\frac{\text{volume of solute}}{\text{volume of solution}}\times 100$

The concentration of a solution is expressed in terms of volume percentage when the volume of solute and the solution is given.
Concentration of solution (volume by volume %)
$=\frac{\text{volume of solute}}{\text{volume of solution}}\times 100$
