20 g of salt was dissolved in 80 g of water. What is the mass fraction of salt in the resulting solution.

1. Let’s find the mass of the formed salt solution by the formula:

m (solution) = m (water) + m (salt) = 80 g + 20 g = 100 g

2. Let’s calculate the mass fraction of salt in the resulting solution by the formula:

w (solution) = m (salt) * 100% / m (solution) = 20 g * 100% / 100 g = 20%.
