This one REQUIRES density, or answering is not possible. Even if the acid in pure form were a liquid, the density will still be needed. Especially the density of the 11% solution must be given.

Assuming the density of the solution is d grams/ml, and the pure acid is a solid,
then %28640%2Fd%29%280.11%29%28grams%29 pure acid is present.
