Calculate the percentage composition in terms of mass of a solution obtained by mixing 400 g of a 25% solution and 300 g of 30% solution.
25.42
28.92
27.14
26.53
As we learnt
Mass percent of solution -
Mass percent = ((mass of solute)/(mass of solution) ) X 100
- wherein
it is mass of solute present in 100 gram solution.
mass of solute in 1st solution = 0.25 x 400 = 100g
mass of solute in 2nd solution = 0.3 x 300 = 90g
mass of solute in total mixtue = 190g
Total mass of the mixture = 700g
