Answer

$50\;mL$.

Work Step by Step

The given values are Base $B=1000\;mL$. Rate $R=5$. Let the pure Lysol is $P=x$ The formula is $\Rightarrow \frac{P}{B}=\frac{R}{100}$ Substitute all the values. $\Rightarrow \frac{x}{1000\;mL}=\frac{5}{100}$ Cross multiply. $\Rightarrow 100x=5000\;mL$ Divide both sides by $100$. $\Rightarrow x=50\;mL$.
