A solution of aqueous ammonium sulfate has a mass of 482 grams. Calculate the mass of ammonium sulfate in solution if the mass percent of the solute is 11.1%

The answer to your question is the mass of solute = 53.5 g

Explanation:

Data

mass of solution = 482 g

mass of solute = ?

mass percent = 11.1 %

Mass percent is a unit of concentration. It measures the mass of the solute divided by the total mass of the solution

Process

1.- Write the formula

        Mass percent = mass of solute / mass of solution x 100

-Solve for mass of solute

          mass of solute = Mass percent x mass of solution / 100

2.- Substitution

          mass of solute = 11.1 x 482 / 100

3.- Simplification

          mass of solute = 5350.2 / 100

4.- Result

          mass of solute = 53.5g
