100 ml of water was added 400 g of a 20% solution. Calculate the% concentration of the resulting solution.

The density of water is 1g / cm³ => the mass is numerically equal to the volume = 100g.

Let’s calculate the mass of the solution ingredient: 400g * 20% = 400g * 0.2 = 80g.

The total mass of the resulting solution = 400g + 100g = 500g.

Let’s calculate the proportion of the ingredient in the final solution: (80/500) * 100% = 0.16 * 100% = 16%.

Answer: Received a 16% solution.
