If a solutions is made
by adding 32 grams of
sugar to 50 Kg of
water, what would be
the percent by mass?

Respuesta :

Answer: The mass percent is 0.064%

Explanation:

To calculate the mass percent of solute in a given solution, we use the formula:

Mass of sugar (solute) = 32  g

Mass of solvent = 50 kg = 50000 g   ( 1kg=1000g)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]\text {mass percent}=\frac{32}{32+50000}\times 100=0.064\%[/tex]

Hence, the mass percent is 0.064%
