Hi
Solutions can be measured by volume, weight, or both but the most commonly used method is is weight per volume.
Explanation
Unless there are specific instructions which in this question are not, we can suppose that assume that 80 % chloride solution means 80g of chloride (weight) , for every 100 milliliters of water (volume).
For a 100 milliliter solution, we will need 100 x .8 = 80 grams of sugar.
Hope it help!
