Best Answer

% by mass is the mass of the solute divide by the total mass of solution times 100%. Or put another way, % by mass = mass solute/total mass of soln (x100%).Mass solute = 4.35 g

Mass of solution = 4.35 g + 105 g = 109.35 g (assuming a density of 1g/ml for water)

% NaCl by mass = 4.35 g/109.35 g (x100%) = 3.98 % (to 3 significant figures)
