Answer:
17.5 g
Explanation:
Given data
- Mass of solution to be prepared: 50.0 grams
- Concentration of the salt solution: 35.0%
The concentration by mass of NaCl in the solution is 35.0%, that is, there are 35.0 grams of sodium chloride per 100 grams of solution. We will use this ratio to find the mass of sodium chloride required to prepare 50.0 grams of a 35.0% salt solution.

I can’t really explain in words so I took a pic of the work I did (Ignore the worksheet and just look at what I wrote to balance the equation.)
The particles are always in motion but not much and the particles are moving slower because said rock is a solid but if said rock was a gas the particles would move much faster and farther this is due to the gaining and loss of energy (i hope that makes sense)
