A)40.0%
B)3.00%
C)33.3%
D)0.250%
E)25.0%

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The mass/volume percent (m/v) is calculated by dividing the mass of the solute (NaCl) by the total volume of the solution, then multiplying by 100. Assuming the density of water is 1 g/mL, the volume of 150.0 g of water is 150.0 mL. Therefore, (50.0 g NaCl / 200.0 mL solution) * 100 = 25.0%.
