    The answer to your question is 16 g

    Explanation:

    Data

    Percent by mass = 8%

    Mass of the solution = 200 g

    Mass of solute = ?

    Formula

    Percent by mass = mass of solute / mass of solution x 100

    - Solve for mass of solute

    Mass of solute = Percent by mass x mass of solution / 100

    - Substitution

    Mass of solute = 8 x 200 / 100

    - Simplification

    Mass of solute = 1600 / 100

    - Result

    Mass of solute = 16 g

    16 grams

    Explanation:

    Mass = 200g

    Solute = MassX

    X = percentage

    X = 0.08

    Solute = 200grams x 0.08 = 16 grams
