2. Calculate: The concentration of a solute is the amount of solute particles in a given amount of solvent. To calculate
percentage concentration, divide the number of solute particles by
the total number of particles (solute + solvent), and then multiply by 100:
% concentration = (solute - total particles) * 100
Select the DESCRIPTION tab. Click Reset. Set the Solute outside to 10 and check that the
Initial cell volume is 40%. (Note: The cell volume is expressed as a percentage of the
container size.)
