A solution of a salt has density of \( 1.2 g / cc \) and concentration of \( 45 \% \) by mass of the salt. What volume of this solution would contain \( 20 g \) of the salt?

Answer»

Given : 

  • Density(d)→1.2g/cc
  • Percentage by mass(w/w%)→45%
  • Weight of solute →20g 

solution :

\(\text{percentage by volume}(w/V\%)=(w/w\%)\times{d}\)

                      (w/V%)=45×1.2

                  (w/V%)=54

We know that ,

\((w/V\%)=\frac{\text{weight of solute}}{\text{volume of solution}}×100\)

        \(54\%=\frac{20}{x}\times{100} \\x=37.03\text{ml}\)

Volume of solution will be 37.03ml
