Answer:

c

Explanation:

A 0.85% saline solution would consist of 0.85 g NaCl made up to 100 mL of water.

A 0.85% saline solution contains 0.85% by weight of NaCl. Hence, in order to prepare such a solution, 0.85 g of NaCl is weighed out into a beaker or cylinder and distilled water is added up to the 100 mL mark. On the other hand, 8.5 g of the NaCl can be weighed out and then distilled water added to 1000 mL mark.

The correct option is, therefore, c.
