1.The concentration of potassium nitrate solution is equal to 16.67%. Explanation: The amount of potassium nitrate which is present in the solution is 50 gram and the total amount of solution is equal to 250 grams.28-May-2020
2 . Formula to calculate concentration is =
Mass of solute/Mass of solution ×100
200/800+200×100
200/1000×100
115×100
20%
3.450g of water needed to make 10%of lead nitrate crystal in solution.
4 . Mass of solute = 20g
Mass of solvent = 500
Mass of solution = 500+20=520
Concentration = 20/520×100
100/20=3.85
