Answer:
1 : 5000
0.02%
Step-by-step explanation:
A solution = solute + solvent
A 2 Litre solution = (2 * 1000) = 2000 mg
Having, 400 mg of solute ;
Recall ;
1 mg = 0.001 ml
400 mg = (0.001 * 400) = 0.4 ml
The strength of the solution :
Amount of solute / Amount of solution
0.4 / 2000
As a ratio :
0.4 / 2000 = (0.4 * 10) / (2000*10) = 4 / 20000 = 1 / 5000 = 1 : 5000 (as a ratio)
0.4 / 2000
= 0.0002
(0.0002 * 100%) = 0.02% (As a percentage)
