The formula for mass/volume percent is:


\displaystyle \text{Mass/Volume percent} = \left(\frac{{\text{Mass of solute}}}{{\text{Volume of solution}}}}\right) * 100.

Given:

Mass of NaCl = 119 g

Total volume of the solution = 4.24 L

Plugging in the values into the formula:


\displaystyle \text{Mass/Volume percent} = \left(\frac{{119 \, \text{g}}}{{4.24 \, \text{L}}}}\right) * 100.

Now, let's perform the calculation:


\displaystyle \text{Mass/Volume percent} = \left(\frac{{119}}{{4.24}}\right) * 100.

Calculating this expression, we have:


\displaystyle \text{Mass/Volume percent} \approx 28.1.

Therefore, the mass/volume percent of the NaCl solution is approximately 28.1%.
