We want to prepare 185. g of a 7.29 % by mass.
% by mass means:
grams of solute ------ 100 grams of solution
Solute = NaBr
Procedure:
7.29 % by mass:
7.29 g NaBr ------ 100 g solution
X ------ 185. g solution
X = 185. g solution x 7.29 g NaBr/100 g solution = 13.48 g = 13.5 g approx.
Answer: 13.5 g NaBr
