Summary Introduction

To determine:

The concentration of methanol solution in $\text{v/v}\text{\%}$ that is prepared by mixing $30.0\text{mL}$ of methanol with $650\text{mL}$ of distilled water.

Introduction:

In the case of liquid solute it is convenient to express its concentration in volume/volume $\left(\text{v/v}\right)$. The percent volume is expressed as,

$\text{v/v}\text{\%}=\frac{\text{Volume}\text{of}\text{solute}}{\text{Volume}\text{of}\text{solution}}\times 100$
