Question

PLEASE HURRY: What is the percent by mass of glucose in a solution containing 27 g of glucose dissolved in 410 g of water?

5.9%


6.2 %


6.6%


15.2%

Answer 1

The answer to your question is 6.2 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

mass of glucose (solute) = 27 g

mass of solvent = 410 g

Formula

Percent by mass = mass of solute/mass of solution x 100

-Substitution

Percent by mass = 27/(410 + 27) x 100

- Simplification

Percent by mass = 27/437 x 100

-Result

Percent by mass = 6.18 ≈ 6.2 %
