Question

If I add 2 grams of sugar to 50 grams of water what should the mass of my
mixture be?

Answer 1

`m_(mixture)=52g`

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since your mixture is composed by sugar and water, its mass turns out:

`m_(mixture)=m_(sugar)+m_(water)`

Whereas the mass of sugar is 2 g and the mass of water is 50 g, therefore, the result is:

`m_(mixture)=2g+50g\\\\m_(mixture)=52g`

Best regards.
