Question:
Calculate the mass percent of a solution that is prepared by adding 26.5g of NaOH to 323g of H2O (answer %m/m)
Mass Percent:
The mass percent is the percent composition, determined when the mass of solute and mass of solution (mass of solute + mass of solvent) is given. The formula for mass percent is as follows,
{eq}{\rm{Mass}}\;{\rm{percent}} = \dfrac{{{\rm{Mass}}\,{\rm{of}}\;{\rm{solute}}}}{{{\rm{Mass}}\,{\rm{of}}\;{\rm{solute}} + {\rm{Mass}}\;{\rm{of}}\,{\rm{solvent}}}} \times 100 {/eq}
