Mass percent
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-006987
A measure of concentration that expresses the mass of a solute as a percentage of the total mass of the solution or mixture. This value indicates the proportion of a specific component within a larger sample. It is calculated as (mass of solute / mass of solution) × 100%.
