1. Calculate the total mass of the solution:
* Mass of NaCl = 10 g
* Mass of H₂O = 100 g
* Total mass of solution = 10 g + 100 g = 110 g
2. Calculate the percent by weight:
* Percent by weight = (mass of solute / mass of solution) * 100%
* Percent by weight = (10 g / 110 g) * 100%
* Percent by weight ≈ 9.09%
Therefore, the percent by weight of the solution is approximately 9.09%.
