Salt added : 14.5 g
Further explanation
Given
17% salt solution
71 ml water
Required
salt needed
Solution
%mass = (mass solute : mass solution) x 100%
71 ml water = 71 g water(density = 1 g/ml)
mass solute = x
[tex]\tt 17\%=\dfrac{x}{x+71}\times 100\%\\\\0.17(x+71)=x\\\\0.17x+12.07=x\\\\0.83x=12.07\\\\x=14.5[/tex]
