How much sugar is there in 100mL of a10 percent aqueous sugar solution and what is the solvent in the solution?

percent concentration = (mass of solute/volume of solution) X 100 To solve for mass of solute, mass of solute = (percent concentration X volume of solution)/100 So, mass of solute = (10% X 100mL)/100 = 10g
