Answer:

15%

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of sugar = 15 g

Mass of water = 85 g

Percentage of sugar in the solution =?

Next, we shall determine the mass of the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of solute (sugar) = 15 g

Mass of solvent (water) = 85 g

Mass of solution =?

Mass of solution = mass of solute + mass of solvent

Mass of solution = 15 + 85

Mass of solution = 100 g

Finally, we shall determine the percentage of the sugar in the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of solute (sugar) = 15 g

Mass of solution = 100 g

Percentage of sugar in the solution =?

Percentage = solute /solution × 100

Percentage = 15 / 100 × 100

Percentage of sugar in the solution = 15%

Which stament about energy is mostly correct
klasskru [66]
I would say C is the most correct. 
In D it depends on what water source you're using. Let's say it is a waterfall, then the source of the water (melting ice or a lake) may disappear in the future. 
If you're using underwater "windmills" placed in the ocean, then you would expect it to last a while as the ocean will not disappear in the near future.
