Calculate the mass fraction (in percent) of hydrogen chloride in an acid solution containing 14.6

Calculate the mass fraction (in percent) of hydrogen chloride in an acid solution containing 14.6 g of HCI and 385.4 g of water.

Given:

m (substance) = 14.6 g,

m (water) = 385.4 g,

W -?

Solution:

The mass fraction of a substance is calculated by the formula:

W = m (substance): m (solution) × 100%,

m (solution) = m (substance) + m (water).

m (solution) = 14.6 g + 385.4 g = 400 g.

W = (14.6g: 400g) × 100% = 3.65%.

Answer: W = 3.65%.
