2.0% w/w morphine
2,0% p/p


Explanation:
b) % Peso por Peso ( p/p) - gramas de soluto em 100 g de solução.

Expressa quantas gramas de soluto há em 100 gramas de solução e se o solvente é água (d=1,0) equivale a % em (p/v) descritas antes.
Essa não é uma maneira usual de expressar a concentração de soluções preparadas em laboratórios, mas se assim for feita deve fica explicito que a % é um p/p.
