Enter the total volume and the volume of the liquid to determine the percentage of the liquid in the mixture. This calculator helps in finding the concentration of a liquid within a solution.
Liquid Percentage Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the liquid percentage in a mixture.
P = (LV / TV) * 100
Variables:
- P is the percentage of the liquid in the mixture (%)
- LV is the volume of the liquid in the mixture (milliliters)
- TV is the total volume of the mixture (milliliters)
To calculate the liquid percentage, divide the volume of the liquid by the total volume of the mixture and then multiply by 100 to get the percentage.
What is Liquid Percentage?
Liquid percentage is a measure of the concentration of a particular liquid within a mixture. It is expressed as a percentage of the total volume that the liquid occupies. This calculation is commonly used in chemistry and cooking to determine the strength of solutions or mixtures.
How to Calculate Liquid Percentage?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Liquid Percentage.
- First, determine the total volume of the mixture (TV) in milliliters.
- Next, determine the volume of the liquid in the mixture (LV) in milliliters.
- Use the formula from above = P = (LV / TV) * 100.
- Finally, calculate the Liquid Percentage (P).
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
Total volume of the mixture (TV) = 500 milliliters
Volume of the liquid in the mixture (LV) = 125 milliliters
