A chemistry student needs of acetic acid for an experiment. He has available of a w/w solution of acetic acid in acetone. Calculate the mass of solution the student should use. If there's not enough solution, press the "No solution" button. Round your answer to significant digits.

49.4 g Solution

Explanation:

There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.

A chemistry student needs 20.0g of acetic acid for an experiment. He has 400.g  available of a 40.5 %  w/w solution of acetic acid in acetone.  

Calculate the mass of solution the student should use. If there's not enough solution, press the "No solution" button. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

We have 400 g of solution and there are 40.5 g of solute (acetic acid) per 100 grams of solution. We can use this info to find the mass of acetic acid in the solution.

Since we only need 20.0 g of acetic acid, there is enough of it in the solution. The mass of solution that contains 20.0 g of solute is:
