Answer: The percent by mass concentration is 33.3 %
Explanation:
Mass percent is the ratio of mass of solute to the mass of solution in terms of percentage.
mass of solute = 50 g
mass of solution = [tex]{\text {density of solution}}\times {\text {volume of solution}}=1.5g/ml\times 1000ml=1500g[/tex]
Mass percentage = [tex]\frac{50g}{1500g}\times 100\%=33.3\%[/tex]
Thus percent by mass concentration of 1000 ml of a solution (d=1.5 g/ml) that contains 50 g of solute in it is 33.3 %
