A solution was prepared by dissolving 25 g of sugar in 100 g of water. Calculate the mass percentage of solute.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Mass of the solute = 25g
Mass of the solvent = 100 g
Mass percentage = `( " Mass of the solute")/("Mass of the solution ") xx 100`
Mass percentage =`( " Mass of the solute ")/("Mass of the solute of the solvent ")xx 100`
`=(25 )/( 25+100 ) xx 100 =(25)/( 125 ) xx 100 = 20 %`
