Answer:

392 g

Step-by-step explanation:

The given concentration tells us that in 100 g of solution, there would be 15.3 g of 2-ethyltoluene.

With that in mind we can calculate how many grams of solution would contain 60.0 g of 2-ethyltoluene:

  • Mass of solution * 15.3 / 100 = 60.0 g 2-ethyltoluene
  • Mass of solution = 392 g
