A mixture is made by combining 1.17 lb of salt and 3.54lb of water.What is the percentage of salt (by mass) in this mixture?

The percentage of salt in the mixture 24.84%

Explanation:

In this problem we are required to solve for the percentage of salt in the mixture of salt and water

Step one :

We can proceed by first solving for the total mass of the mixture

Which is given as

mass of mixture =mass of salt +mass of water

Mass of mixture = 1.17+3.54

Mass of mixture = 4.71 lb

Step two :

Now let us calculate the percentage of salt present in the mixture which is

=(mass of salt/mass of mixture) *100

=(1.17/4.71)*100

=0.248*100

=24.84%

Constitutional Monarch had its origins when King John was compelled to sign the Magna Carta that protected the barons from abusive of power from the king.  Later during the rise of Parliament, they presented the Bill of Rights that laid down a list of rights of individuals that further limited the power of the nobility.  When the English Civil War ended, the monarchy was restored but so as not to anger parliament, constitutional monarchy was establish that gave more power to the parliament than the king.
