how many grams of glucose, C6H12O6 and water are in 600g of 5.5% by mass glucose solution? please indicate the general formula to use to solve this problem.

% by mass = grams solute/100 g solution or
(X/600)*100 = 5.5
X = 600*0.055 = 33 g solute. You can prove that if you wish to know you're right.(33/600(*100 = right! 5.5%

So how much is water and how much is solute.
(If 33g is the solute, then 600-33 = ? must be H2O)
I don't effin know
100
