Question

A mixture is made by combining 1.49 lb of salt and 3.82 lb of water.

Answer 1

Answer:

28%

Explanation:

concentration=(solute mass/solution mass)*100

C=concentration

md-solute mass

ms-solution mass

the solution mass is equal to the sum of the solute and solvent mass

ms=3.82+1.49=5.31lb

c=1.49/5.31 * 100=0.28*100=28%
