A solution contains 50 g of sugar in 450 g of water. Calculate the concentration in terms of mass by mass percentage of the solution.​

Correct option is B

To calculate the mass by mass percentage of the solution, we can use the following formula:

Mass by mass percentage = (Mass of solute / Total mass of solution) * 100

In this case:

• Mass of solute (sugar) = 50g
• Mass of solvent (water) = 450g
• Total mass of solution = 50g + 450g = 500g

Plugging these values into the formula:

Mass by mass percentage = (50g / 500g) * 100 = 10%

Therefore, the concentration of the solution in terms of mass by mass percentage is 10%.

So, the correct answer is 2. 10%.
