Define mass percentage, volume percentage and mass to volume percentage solutions.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

i) Mass percentage : The mass percentage of a component of a solution is defined as the
`"mass"% =("Mass of the component in the solution")/("Total mass of the solution")xx100`
ii) Volume percentage `((v)/(V))` : It is defined as the volume % of a component
`=("Volume of the component")/("Total volume of solution")xx100`
iii) Mass to volume percentage `((w)/(V))` : It is defined as the mass of solute dissolved in 100 ml of the solution.
`to` It is commonly used in medicine and pharmacy.
