To identify the mass of the solute, subtract the total mass by the mass of the graduated cylinder.

Thus, we have the following:


20.6g-2.55g=18.05g

To obtain the concentration of the solution, divide the obtained mass by the total volume and then simplify.

Thus, we have the following:


(18.05g)/(74.79mL)=(1805g)/(7479mL)\approx0.241g\cdot mL^(-1)
