Calculate the mass/volume percent (m/v) of 19.0 g NaCl in 56.0 mL of solution.

Question:

Calculate the mass/volume percent (m/v) of 19.0 g NaCl in 56.0 mL of solution.

Mass/Volume Solution:

Mass/volume percentage ({eq}{\rm{m/v}}\% {/eq}) is used to denote the amount of solute and solvent in a particular solution using the formula,

{eq}\text{Mass/Volume}\%= \dfrac{\text{mass of solute in grams}}{\text{Volume of the solution in mililitre}} \times 100\;\% {/eq}

There are different ways of denoting the solution according to the given amount of solute (in the form of weight or volume).
