1. Determine the molar masses:
* Sodium (Na): 22.99 g/mol
* Chlorine (Cl): 35.45 g/mol
2. Calculate the molar mass of NaCl:
* NaCl = 22.99 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol = 58.44 g/mol
3. Calculate the mass percentage of chlorine:
* (Mass of chlorine / Molar mass of NaCl) * 100%
* (35.45 g/mol / 58.44 g/mol) * 100% = 60.66%
Therefore, the percent concentration of chlorine in sodium chloride is approximately 60.66%.
