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

= 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

345

× 100 % = 1.159 %

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

What volume of beaker contains exactly 2.23x10^-2 mol of nitrogen gas at STP?

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

V = 0.5 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of nitrogen = 2.23×10⁻² mol (0.0223 mol)

Temperature = 273 K

Pressure = 1 atm

Volume = ?

Solution:

PV = nRT

V = nRT / P

V = 0.0223 mol × 0.0821 atm. mol⁻¹. L . k⁻¹ × 273 K / 1 atm

V = 0.5 L

Until the 1960s, it was widely believed that the Moon was made of material that was flung off Earth during a time when it was ra

zysi [14]

All the other chices give evidence that supports that hypothesisthat the Moon was made of material that was flung off Earth during a time when it was rapidly spinning.

Explanation:

There is an enormous amount of similarities between the minerals in the moon rocks and the rocks on earth, except that for some minerals, like potassium, their quantities are higher on the earth than on the moon.

However, there is still supports for the evidence (by the other choices) that the moon was made from a piece of earth ejected from asteroid impact in primordial earth.Explanation:It’s believed that more than 3.5 billion years during the formation of earth and before it had cooled there were frequent asteroid impacts and one enormous collision ejected a large piece of molten earth into space but within earth’s gravity influence. This piece formed the moon. Evidence of asteroid impacts are frozen in time on the moon surface thanks to the fact that the moon has no atmosphere or tectonic plates movements that wipe off this ‘evidence’.
