Volume can be defined as the capacity of a container.

Option C: The expressions are not equivalent is the correct answer.

The question says: Two-fifths of a liquid’s volume, v, evaporates from a container.

Two fifths = 2/5

Converting 2/5 to decimal

= 0.4

Writing 0.4 as a percentage

0.4 = 40%

25V is not equal to 0.4v or 40%v

From the above, the expression 25v and 40% is not the same.

Therefore, Option C: The expressions are not equivalent is the correct answer.
