We evaporated 25 g of solution and obtained 1.75 g of salt. What was the consistency of the solution?

In the condition of the problem, the total mass of the solvent and salt is given – 25 g, as well as the mass of the salt – 1.75 g. Using the formula below, we can find the mass fraction of salt in the initial solution.

W = m salt / m salt + solvent * 100%,

where the mass fraction is W.

W = 1.75 / 25 * 100 = 7%

Thus, the initial solution contained 1.75 g of salt, which corresponds to 7%.
