(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mass-volume percent of ${\text{NaNO}}_{\text{3}}$ in the given solution has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Mass-volume percent:

Mass-volume percent is given by,

$\text{Mass-volume percent}\text{=}\frac{\text{mass of solute}\text{(g)}}{\text{Total volume of the solution}\text{(mL)}}\text{×}\text{100}$
