We have the next given information:
-18.5% is the percentage of methyl alcohol
- The bottle contains 1.43 L
Now, we need to convert the percentage into a decimal.
Then 18.5% = 0.185
We need to determinate the volume in millimeters for methyl alcohol:
If 143L of solution contains 18.5% of methyl alcohol. Therefore:
The volume of methyl alcohol = 1.43 * 0.185
= 0.26455 L
Then, we need to convert Liters to milliliters:
1L ---------------------------- 1000ml
0.26455 L ------------------ x
Where x = (0.26455 L*1000ml)/1L
x =264.55ml
