The volume of the sulfuric acid would be 22.17 mL
The density of a substance is the ratio of the mass of the substance and its volume. In other words:
Density = mass/volume
In this case, the density is given as 1.84 and we are to find the volume of the acid that would contain 40 g of pure H2SO4.
volume = mass/density
Since the acid is only 98% pure, in order to obtain a volume that will contain 40 g of pure H2SO4, the mass will need to be marked up by 2% in order to compensate for the impurity.
2/100 of 40 = 0.8
0.8 + 40 = 40.8
volume = 40.8/1.84
= 22.17 mL
