K - potassium.
H₂O - water.
KOH - potassium-hydroxide.
H₂ - hydrogen.
s - solid phase.
l - liquid.
aq - disolves in water.
g - gas.

Answer:

14.7838

Explanation:

Given that;

A student uses a solution that contains 16 g of water to conduct an experiment and at the end of an hour ; the amount have decreased by 3.5%

The mathematically illustration for this is given as

= 16 g ×  3.5%

= 16 *\frac{3.5}{100}

= 0.56  

After an hour; the amount have decreased by 16 - 0.56

= 15.44

after 2 hours the water decreased by another 4.25%

i.e  15.44 * \frac{ 4.25}{100}

⇒ 0.6562

after two hours , the amount would have decreased by:

= 15.44 - 0.6562

= 14.7838
