Question

If a solutions is made

by adding 32 grams of
sugar to 50 Kg of
water, what would be
the percent by mass?

Answer 1

Answer: The mass percent is 0.064%

Step-by-step 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:

`\text {mass percent}=(32)/(32+50000)* 100=0.064\%`

Hence, the mass percent is 0.064%
