Answer:

A solution of acetic acid that is 60.0% HC₂H₃O₂ (by mass) indicates that it contains 60.0 g of acetic acid and 100.0 g of water.

Explanation:

A percentage is a way of expressing an amount as a fraction of 100. The mass percentage corresponds to physical units of the solutions and they allow to establish more precisely the concentration of the solutions and express them in terms of percentages.

Mass percentage indicates the amount in grams of solute per 100 grams of solution.

So a solution of acetic acid that is 60.0% HC₂H₃O₂ (by mass) indicates that it contains 60.0 g of acetic acid and 100.0 g of water.
