Question

What is the mass percent of a solution made with 113 g ethylene glycol and 125 g water? 

Answer 1

Mass percent of solution expresses the mass of solute present in given mass of solution multiplied by 100

Mass of solution = 113g + 125g = 238g

Mass of solute =. 113g

Mass% = (113g ethylene glycol/238g solution) 100 = 47.5%
