    Calculating percent by mass/volume Name ________________

    Chem Worksheet 15-2


    The concentration of a solution can be expressed as a
    percent the ratio of solute to solution. This calculation USEFUL EQUATIONS
    is commonly performed based on the mass of a substance
    (m/m) or on the volume of substances (v/v). A solution Percent by Mass mass solute
    100
    that is composed of 5 g of salt for every 95 g of water mass solution
    will have a mass percent of 5%. Percent by Volume mass solute
    100
    mass solution
    5 g NaCl Solution = solute + solvent
    100 = 5 %
    (5 g + 95 g) solution
    1 kg = 1000 g 1 L = 1000 mL

    A solution made from 35 mL of ethanol and 65 mL of water will have a percent by volume of 35%.
    35 mL ethanol
    100 = 35 %
    (35 mL + 65 mL) solution

    Answer the following questions. Show all work and report answers with units.
    1. What is the percent by mass of 5.0 g of iron (II) 5. What is the mass percent of each component in
    sulfate dissolved in 75.0 g of water? the mixture formed by adding 12 g of calcium
    sulfate, 18 g of sodium nitrate, and 25 g of
    potassium chloride to 500 g of water?

    2. A solution is made by adding 25 mL of


    benzene to 80 mL of toluene. What is the 6. A solution is made by dissolving 125 g of sodium
    percent by volume of benzene? chloride in 1.5 kg of water. What is the percent by
    mass?

    3. A solution is formed by adding 35 g of 7. What is the percent by volume of a solution


    ammonium nitrate to 250 g of water. What is formed by added 15 L of acetone to 28 L of
    the percent by mass of ammonium nitrate? water?

    4. What is the percent by volume of a solution 8. An experiment requires a solution that is 80%
    formed by mixing 25 mL of isopropanol with methyl alcohol by volume. What volume of
    45 mL of water? methyl alcohol should be added to 200 mL of
    water to make this solution?
