Calculate the mass percent (m/m) of a solution prepared by dissolving 46.41 g g of NaCl in 168.8 g of .

Answer 1

If you mean you are dissolving the 46.41 g NaCl in 168.8 g of SOLVENT, then we can proceed as follows:

Total mass = 46.41 g + 168.8 g = 215.2 g

mass % NaCl = 46.41 g/215.2 g (x100%) = 0.2157

mass % solvent = 168.8 g/215.2 g (x100%) = 0.7844
