Answer» Correct Answer - 1
In case of a solid dissolved in a liquid, the percentage by mass means the mass of the solute in grams present in 100 g of the solution, i.e., it is `weight//weight (w//w)` and percentage by volume means the mass of the solute dissolved in `100 mL` or `100 cm^(3)` of the solution i.e., it is `weight//volume (w//v)`.
In case of a liquid dissolved in another liquid, percentage by mass has the same meaning but percentage by volume means the volume of the liquid solute in `cm^(3)` present in `100 cm^(3)` of the solution, i.e., it is `volume//volume (w//v)`.
