Answer:

49.6mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Volume of solution = 386mL

Percentage composition of acid = 12.86%

Solution

The solution is made up of water and acid in their respective proportions.

We have been given the percentage composition of acid to be 12.86%, so we can easily obtain the exact volume of the acid in the compositon.

Volume of acid in solution = perenctage of acid x volume of solution

Volume of acid = [tex]\frac{12.86}{100}[/tex] x 386mL = 49.6396mL

Rounding to the nearest tenth gives: 49.6mL
