Achemist is using 351 milliliters of a solution of acid and water. if 14.1% of the solution is acid, how many milliliters of acid are there

49.491 millimeters of acid is present

Solution:

Given that, chemist is using 351 milliliters of a solution of acid and water

14.1% of the solution is acid

To find: Milliliters of acid present

From given statement,

Solution of acid and water = 351 ml

14.1% of the solution is acid, which means that 14.1 % of 351 ml is acid

Therefore,

Milliliters of acid present = 14.1 % of 351 ml

Here "of" means multiplication

Therefore,

Thus 49.491 millimeters of acid is present
