Activity 2. Calculating Percent Volume/Volume (% v/v)

1. What is the % v/v of a solution that has 5.0 mL of hydrochloric acid
(HCl) diluted to 95 mL with deionized water?
Solution
The given parameters are:
Volume of solute is ______________________
Volume of solution is ____________________
Substitute the values in the given formula,
Volume percent = volume of solute /volume of solution x 100%
= ________________________________
Volume percent = ______________

2. Determine the volume/volume percent solution made by combining
50 mL of ethanol with enough water to produce 150 mL of the
solution.
The parameters are:
Volume of solute is ______________________
Volume of solution is ____________________
Substitute the values in the given formula,
Volume percent = volume of solute /volume of solution x 100%
= ________________________________
Volume percent = _______________
