Transcript:

**#11. Calculate the mass percentage of Na₂S₂O₃ in a solution containing 11.7 g of Na₂S₂O₃ in 44.3 g of water.**

Explanation:

This problem asks you to determine the mass percentage of sodium thiosulfate (Na₂S₂O₃) in a solution. To find the mass percentage, use the formula:

\[ \text{Mass Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{mass of solute} + \text{mass of solvent}} \right) \times 100\% \]

In this case:
- Mass of solute (Na₂S₂O₃) = 11.7 g
- Mass of solvent (water) = 44.3 g

Substituting these values into the formula will give you the mass percentage of sodium thiosulfate in the solution.

Step 1

Given that:

Mass of Na2 SO= 11.7 g

Mass of water = 443 g 

Total mass of solution = mass of water + mass of Na2SO3
