How much salt and how much water must be mixed to make 250g brine solution that is 50% salt by mass?
Concentration = (mass of solute/mass of solution) ×100
50=(mass of solute/250gm)×100
mass of solute = 250×50/100
mass of solute = 125 gm
mass of solution = mass of solute +
mass of solvent
250gm=125gm+mass of solvent
mass of solvent=250gm-125gm
mass of solvent=125gm.
mass of solute=125gm.
