Answer: The mass of solution of \(NH_4Cl\) is 4.86 grams.
Explanation:
In \(NH_4Cl\), there are 1 nitrogen atom , 4 hydrogen atoms. and 1 chlorine atom.
To calculate the mass percent of element in a given compound, we use the formula:
\(\text{percent by mass}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 100\)
Percent by mass of solution = 35%
Mass of solute \(NH_4Cl\) = 1.7 gram
Mass of solution = ?
Putting values in above equation, we get:
\(35=\frac{1.7}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 100\)
\({\text{Mass of solution}}=4.86g\)
Hence, the mass of solution is 4.86 grams.
