Answers
GPT 3.5
percentage = (mass of component / total mass of solution) x 100%
percentage = (85.5 g / (85.5 g + 3.84 g + 26.7 g)) x 100%
percentage = (85.5 g / 116.04 g) x 100%
percentage = 73.62%
Therefore, the percent by mass of carbon tetrachloride in the solution is 73.62%.
percentage = (85.5 g / (85.5 g + 3.84 g + 26.7 g)) x 100%
percentage = (85.5 g / 116.04 g) x 100%
percentage = 73.62%
Therefore, the percent by mass of carbon tetrachloride in the solution is 73.62%.
