You divide by the mass of the solution.

Percent by mass is the mass of the solute divided by the mass of the solution, multiplied by 100.

Example:

You dissolve a 4.00 g sugar cube in 350 mL of tea at 80 °C. The density of water at 80 °C is 0.975 g/mL. What is the percent by mass of sugar in the solution?

Solution

Step 1 — Determine mass of the solute.

The solute is the sugar cube. Mass of solute = 4.00 g.

Step 2 — Determine mass of solvent.

The solvent is the 80 °C water. Use the density of the water to find the mass.

mass of solvent = 350 mL ×

0.975

g

1

mL

= 341 g

Step 3— Determine the total mass of the solution

mass of solution = mass of solute + mass of solvent = 4.00 g + 341 g = 345 g

Step 4 — Determine percent composition by mass of the sugar solution.

% by mass =

mass of solute

mass of solution

× 100 % =

4.00

g

345

g

× 100 % = 1.159 %

The percent composition by mass of the sugar solution is 1.159 %.

Firdavs [7]

The highest value of the ion is the nucleon number. The correct option is a.

<h3>What is nucleon number?</h3>

The mass number of an element is so named because it represents the total number of protons and neutrons in the element.

The total number of protons and neutrons in an atomic nucleus is known as the mass number, also known as the atomic mass number or nucleon number. It is roughly equivalent to the atomic mass expressed in atomic mass units.

In the given ion Q+, the nucleon number has the highest value in the ion

Thus, the correct option is a.
