प्रश्न

Define Mass percentage.

व्याख्या

उत्तर

The mass percentage of a component of a solution is defined as the mass of the solute in grammes present in 100 g of the solution. It is expressed as:

Mass % of a component = `"Mass of the component in the solution"/"Total mass of solution"xx100`

For example, if a solution is described as 10% glucose in water by mass, it means that 10 g of glucose is dissolved in 90 g of water, resulting in a 100 g solution. Concentration, described by mass percentage, is commonly used in industrial chemical applications. For example, a commercial bleaching solution contains a 3.62 mass percentage of sodium hypochlorite in water.
