50 g of fertilizer was dissolved in water weighing 300 g. Determine the mass fraction of fertilizer in the solution.

We have a mass of water and a mass of fertilizer itself. In the problem, the fertilizer mass is the mass of the solute, because. it was he who was dissolved in water.
The mass of the entire solution will be the sum of the mass of the solute and the mass of water: 50 + 300 = 350g.
In order to find the mass fraction of fertilizer in the solution, we must divide the mass of the solute by the mass of the entire solution and multiply by one hundred percent: 50/350 * 100 = 14.3% – the answer.
