Percent Solution Calculator

Find % w/v concentration of a solution.

Calculated Output

Concentration (% w/v) 5

Formula: % w/v = solute (g) ÷ volume (mL) × 100

Step-by-Step Breakdown

1. Values used:

2. Solute mass = 5

3. Solution volume = 100 mL

5. Concentration = (5 / 100) x 100 = 0.05 x 100 = 5% w/v

The math behind it

% w/v = solute mass (g) ÷ solution volume (mL) × 100.

5 g in 100 mL → 5% w/v.

w/v vs w/w?

w/v is per volume; w/w is per total mass.
