5 %

50%

25%

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is 17 %

Explanation:

Data

Solute = 25 g

Solvent = 125 g

Formula

$mass percent = \frac{mass of solute}{mass of solution} x 100$

Substitution

$mass percent = \frac{25}{125 + 25} x 100$

Simplification and result

$mass percent = \frac{25}{150} x 100$

      mass percent = 17%
