Mass Percent Calculator

Mass Percent Calculator

What is this calculator used for?

This calculator is used to determine the mass percent (also called mass/mass percent) of a solute in a solution. It is widely used in chemistry to describe the concentration of a component in a mixture.

How to use this calculator?

  1. Enter the mass of the solute (in grams).
  2. Enter the total mass of the solution (in grams).
  3. Click on the "Calculate Mass Percent" button.
  4. The result will display the mass percent of the solute in the solution.

Formula Used

Mass Percent (%) = (Mass of Solute / Mass of Solution) × 100

Example

If the mass of solute is 5g and the mass of solution is 50g:
Mass Percent = (5 / 50) × 100 = 10%
