mass of solute = 1.50 g
mass of solvent = 50.0 g
percent by mass
[tex]\text{percent by mass} = \dfrac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{mass of solute + mass of solvent}} \times 100\%[/tex]
[tex]\text{percent by mass} = \dfrac{\text{1.50 g}}{\text{1.50 g + 50.0 g}} \times 100\%[/tex]
percent by mass = 2.91%
