Answer:
39.95 mL is the volume of the solute
13.77% is the volume percent (v/v).
Explanation:
Density of solute = 1.15 g/mL
Mass of solute = 45.95 g
Volume of the solute = V
[tex]Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}[/tex]
[tex]V=\frac{45.95 g}{1.15 g/mL}=39.95 mL[/tex]
Volume of the solvent that water = 250 mL
Volume of the solution = 250 mL + 39.95 mL = 289.95 mL
Volume percent (v/v):
[tex]\frac{\text{Volume of solute}}{\text{Volume of the solution}}\times 100[/tex]
[tex](v/v)\%=\frac{39.95 mL}{289.95 mL}\times 100=13.77\%[/tex]
39.95 mL is the volume of the solute
13.77% is the volume percent (v/v).
