Step-by-step explanation:
The given data is:
The mass% of a solution is 7.
Mass of solution =450g
The mass of salt required can be calculated as shown below:
![mass percent =(mass of solute/mass of solution )x100\\](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/chemistry/college/ool0zif4yzr5bps6oea7bkda3kaa3oxh85.png)
Substitute the given values in this formula to get the mass of solute that is salt:
![mass percent =(mass of solute/mass of solution )x100\\\\7=(mass of salt)/(450g) x100\\=>mass of salt=7x450g /100\\mass of salt=31.5g](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/chemistry/college/6mhx1jivcarhuuj55ar56iqgpvozcm3u8v.png)
Mass of salt =31.5g
Mass of solvent that is water = 450g-31.5g=418.5g
