Asolution is prepared by dissolving 27.7 g of cacl2 in 375 g of water. the density of the resulting solution is 1.05 g/ml. the concentration of cacl2 is % by mass.

The answer is 6.88.
Solution:
We can calculate for the percent composition of CaCl2 by mass by dividing the mass of the CaCl2 solute by the mass of the solution and then multiply by 100. The total mass of the resulting solution is the sum of the mass of CaCl2 solute and the mass of water solvent. Therefore, the percent composition of CaCl2 by mass is 
     % by mass = (mass of the solute / mass of the solution)*100 
                        = mass of solute / (mass of the solute + mass of the solvent)*100
                        = (27.7 g CaCl2 / 27.7g + 375g) * 100 
                        = 6.88

Yes it would be a physical change.
