it's the same as the molar percentage as 1 mol of gas will occupy 24.79dm3/mol at

25 °C no mater what the element/compound is so if you know the actual amounts calculate the molar fraction and that will give you the percentage

To calculate volume in percentage, divide the current volume by the total volume and then multiply by 100. This will give you the percentage of the volume. Formula: (Current Volume / Total Volume) * 100 = Volume Percentage.

Volume percent is used in Alcoholic Beverages. It is the volume of alcohol divided by the total volume (times 100 to make it a percent).

You can also talk about volume percent in a mixture of gases like air. When it is stated that air is 20% oxygen it is meant that if you separated the oxygen from 100 L of air you would get 20 L of oxygen, the remainder, 80 liters, would be mostly nitrogen but also contain traces of other gases. Calculate the same way: Volume of oxygen when separated divided by the total volume of the sample of air.
