Question

What is the formula for percent by mass?

Answer 1

1. A component in a particular combination or a concentration can be described using the mass percent.
2. The mass of solute present in a certain mass of the solution is indicated by the mass percentage used to characterize the solution composition.
3. The concentration of the solute is expressed in units of mass or moles.
4. By multiplying the grams of solute per gram of solution by $100$, the mass percent of a solution may be computed.
5. Percentage of mass $=$$\left(\frac{solutemass}{massofsolution}\right)\times 100$
