Concept introduction:
Several concentration units may be used to express the concentration. It is often useful to express the concentration in terms of percentage. The concentration term that can be expressed as the amount of solute in grams dissolved in
The other way is to express number of milliliters of solute per
The conversion factor to convert fluid ounce to milliliters is as follows:
The formula to calculate the volume /volume percent is as follows:

- A martini, weighing about 5.0 oz (142 g), contains 30.0% by mass of alcohol. About 15% of the alcohol in the martini passes directly into the bloodstream (7.0 L for an adult). Estimate the concentration of alcohol in the blood (g/cm3) of a person who drinks two martinis before dinner. (A concentration of 0.00080 g/cm3 or more is frequently considered indicative of intoxication in a normal adult.)arrow_forward6-37 Calculate the w/v percentage of each of these solutes: (a) 623 mg of casein in 15.0 mL of milk (b) 74 mg of vitamin C in 250 mL of orange juice (c) 3.25 g of sucrose in 186 mL of coffeearrow_forward1) 0.1% w/v = ? mg/100 ml?
