A chemist is using 362 milliliters of a solution of acid and water. If 12.1% of the solution is acid, how many milliliters of acid are there? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

The answer to your question is 43.8 mL of acid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Total volume = 362 ml

12.1 % is acid

The Volume of acid = ?

Process

1.- Use the rule of three and cross multiplication to solve this problem.

               362 ml 100%

                    x        12.1 %

                    x = (12.1 x 362) / 100

                    x = 4380.2 / 100

                    x = 43.802 ml

2.- Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

                        43.802   only consider the first decimal

                        43.8 mL

3.- Conclusion

    A 12.1% solution of acid has 43.8 mL of acid.
