5.1g of  toothpaste was weighed out and transferred to a 500 ml beaker. 250 ml of deionized water was added to the beaker by measuring cylinder, heated for 5 minutes on a hotplate, then sonicated for 10 minutes in an ultrasonic bath. The contents of the beaker was then transferred to a 1000 ml volumetric flask, made to the mark with deionized water and mixed thoroughly. Ten ml of this solution was removed from the volumetric flask (autopipette), 5 ml (measuring cylinder) of TISAB buffer was added.  The concentration of the toothpaste obtained is 3.4mgF-/L, calculate the % of fluoride (F) in toothpast
