Answer

3.5 ml volume of water  will be required for sterilization of 700 mg Kanamycin

Explanation

First convert mg to gram

700 mg = 0.7 gram

So  

For 1 gram kanamycin = 5 ml of water is required

For 0.7 gram kanamycin = 0.7 x 5 ml of water is required

                                         = 3.5 ml

Then ,0.7 g of water will be sterile by = 3.5 ml
