What does it mean when a vinegar solution is 6% by volume?
Answer:
It means that of 100 milliliters of the solution, 6 mL are vinegar, the other 94 milliliters are something else (usually water).
The % concentration is the most confusing. It can be % by volume, by weight, or by mole.
A 6 % by volume solution is one in which the solute, acetic acid in this case, is 6% of the solution volume and the balance, 94% is water.
Basically in 100ml there iss 6ml of vinegar (acetic acid) and the rest is a solvent (i.e. water)
'Vinegar' is the name given to the solution as used in the kitchen.
The Vinegar solution is produced from 6mL (volume) of glacial acetic acid in 94mL (volume) of water
