    C = 98%

    Explanation:

    Hello,

    To determine the percentage of salt recovered, we'll divide the mass of the salt recovered over by the original mass of the salt.

    Mass of salt recovered = 1.47g

    Initial mass of salt = 1.50g

    Percentage of salt recovered = (mass recovered / initial mass of salt) * 100

    Percentage of salt recovered = (1.47 / 1.50) * 100

    Percentage of salt recovered = 0.98 * 100

    Percentage of salt recovered = 98%

    The percentage of salt recovered is equal to 98%
