Answer 1

Answer: the final mass of the solid is 176 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

The "change" between two quantities, one initial Qi and one final Qf is defined as:

Change = Qf - Qi.

In this case, the quantity is mass, and we know that the initial mass is 260 grams.

And we also know that the change is -84 grams.

Then we have the equation:

Qf - 260 g = -84g

Qf = -84g + 260g = 176g

So the final mass of the solid is 176 grams.
