Answer:
The correct answer is "85.71 mg".
Explanation:
The given values are:
Mass of drug,
= 3.0 mg
Mass percentage,
= 3.5%
As we know,
⇒ [tex]Mass \ percent = \frac{Mass \ of \ drug}{Mass \ of \ solution}\times 100[/tex]
Or,
⇒ [tex]Mass \ of \ solution = \frac{Mass \ of \ drug}{Mass \ percent}\times 100[/tex]
On substituting the values, we get
⇒ [tex]=\frac{3.0}{3.5}\times 100[/tex]
⇒ [tex]=0.8571\times 100[/tex]
⇒ [tex]=85.71 \ mg[/tex]
