The percent by mass of calcium hydroxide in the solution : 15.41%
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
The concentration of a substance can be expressed in several quantities such as moles, percent (%) weight/volume,), molarity, molality, parts per million (ppm) or mole fraction. The concentration shows the amount of solute in a unit of the amount of solvent.
Mass of solute (Ca(OH₂-Calcium hydroxide) : 28.5
Mass of solution = 185 g
It is important in gravimetric analysis to add an excess amount of precipitating ions to a solution containing an analyte because it helps to determine the mass of the analyte.
<h3>What is Gravimetric analysis?</h3>
This is a method which is used in the determination of the quantitative determination of the ion being analyzed(analyte) based on its mass.
Adding an excess amount of precipitating ions to a solution containing an analyte will make it easier for the mass of an analyte to be determined.
It is also important for the precipitate to be a pure substance with a definite and known composition which therefore makes it the most appropriate reason.

The _____melting point________ is the temperature at which a substance changes from solid to liquid; _______boiling point_________ is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to as gas; _______vapourisation_________ is the process by which atoms of molecules leave a liquid and become a gas.
Carboxylic acids and alcohols have higher boiling point
than other hydrocarbons due to their polarity and from the fact that they form
very strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding. This is due to the large
difference in their electronegativity that forms between the oxygen and the
hydrogen atom.
