A solution is prepared by dissolving 15 grams of sugar in 85 grams of water. How many percent of sugar is in the solution?

15%

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of sugar = 15 g

Mass of water = 85 g

Percentage of sugar in the solution =?

Next, we shall determine the mass of the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of solute (sugar) = 15 g

Mass of solvent (water) = 85 g

Mass of solution =?

Mass of solution = mass of solute + mass of solvent

Mass of solution = 15 + 85

Mass of solution = 100 g

Finally, we shall determine the percentage of the sugar in the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of solute (sugar) = 15 g

Mass of solution = 100 g

Percentage of sugar in the solution =?

Percentage = solute /solution × 100

Percentage = 15 / 100 × 100

Percentage of sugar in the solution = 15%
