Answer:

1 : 5000

0.02%

Step-by-step explanation:

A solution = solute + solvent

A 2 Litre solution = (2 * 1000) = 2000 mg

Having, 400 mg of solute ;

Recall ;

1 mg = 0.001 ml

400 mg = (0.001 * 400) = 0.4 ml

The strength of the solution :

Amount of solute / Amount of solution

0.4 / 2000

As a ratio :

0.4 / 2000 = (0.4 * 10) / (2000*10) = 4 / 20000 = 1 / 5000 = 1 : 5000 (as a ratio)

0.4 / 2000

= 0.0002

(0.0002 * 100%) = 0.02% (As a percentage)
