Solution:
Given,
Weight of salt = 75 g
Quantity of water = 100 mL
As we know that, the formula of the percentage of the concentration is:
Concentration% = Mass of the solute / Mass of solute + Mass of solvent × 100
=> Concentration % = 75 / 175 × 100
=> Concentration % = 0.4285 × 100
=> Concentration % = 42.85 %
So, the concentration of the solute that is salt is 42.85%.
Now, for finding the concentration of solvent is:
Given,
Weight of salt = 75 g
Quantity of water = 100 mL
Concentration% = Mass of the solvent / Mass of solvent + Mass of solvent × 100
=> Concentration % = 100 / 175 × 100
=> Concentration % = 0.5714 × 100
=> Concentration % = 57.14 %
So, the concentration of the solvent that is water is 57.14%.
