Answer

The concentration of sucrose in that carbonated drink is equal to 11% (m/v).

Work Step by Step

1. Write the concentration expression: $Concentration \space (m/v) = \frac{mass \space of \space solute \space (g)}{volume \space of \space solution \space (mL)} \times 100 \%$ 2. Substitute the values, and calculate the concentration: $Concentration \space (m/v) = \frac{39 \space g }{355 \space mL} \times 100 \% = 11\% \space (m/v)$
