The right answer is A 9.09%
To determine a solution's concentration, use mass percentage. A solution contains solute and solvent.
Mass percentage of a solution =Mass of the solute Mass of the solution×100
We know, mass of solute = 10 g
mass of solvent = 100 g
The total amount of solution = 10 + 100 = 110 g
Mass percentage of a solution = 10110×100=9.09%
