Evaporation of 50 g of the solution gave 3 g of a solid residue. calculate the mass fraction of the solute in the solution.

Let’s designate the total mass of the solution in 50 g as 100%. Let’s make a proportion and find what percentage is 3 g of solid.

50 g – 100%

3 g – x%

x = 3 * 100/50;

x = 300/50;

x = 6.

Answer: the mass fraction of the solute is 6%.
