percentage by volume of solution is the percentage volume of solute in total volume of solution.
Volume percentage (v/v%) = volume of solute / total volume of solution x 100%
volume of solute - 16.0 mL
total volume of solution - 155 mL
v/v% = 16.0 / 155 x 100% = 10.32%
this means that in a volume of 100 mL solution, 10.32 mL is acetone.
