Here is how the Moisture Percent equation looks like.

40 = (50 - 30) \cdot \frac{100}{50}

40 = (50kg - 30) \cdot \frac{100}{50kg}

40 = (50 - 30) \cdot \frac{100}{50}

Moisture Percent Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Moisture Percent?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

M% = (M I - M D) \cdot \frac{100}{M I}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

M% = (50kg - 30) \cdot \frac{100}{50kg}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

M% = (50 - 30) \cdot \frac{100}{50}

LAST Step Evaluate

∴

M% = 40

Formulas to find Moisture Percent

Initial Mass

Initial Mass is the weight of the sample with the moisture content I.e before drying.

Symbol: M _I

Measurement: WeightUnit: kg

Note: Value can be positive or negative.

Formulas to find Initial Mass

Dried Mass

Dried Mass is the weight of the sample after draining the moisture either by air drying or drying in absence of oxygen.

Symbol: M _D

Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless

Note: Value can be positive or negative.

Go Amount of Constituents

Ac = \frac{V MC}{Mc}

Go Dilution Factor

Df = \frac{V f}{Vo}

Go Dried Mass of Sample

M D = \frac{M I \cdot (100 - M%)}{100}

Go Final Volume of Solution to be measured

V f = Vo \cdot Df

How to Evaluate Moisture Percent?

Moisture Percent evaluator uses Moisture Percent = (Initial Mass-Dried Mass)*100/Initial Mass to evaluate the Moisture Percent, The Moisture Percent formula is defined as the the amount of water in a material relative to its dry or wet weight, usually expressed as a percentage. Moisture Percent is denoted by M% symbol.
