Answer:

5.0% by mass

Explanation:

Percent by mass is 100 times the ratio between the mass of solute (Magnesium citrate) in the mass of solution.

Mass of Magnesium citrate -Molar mass: 214.41g/mol-:

0.1mol * (214.41g/mol) = 21.441g

Assuming the volume of the solution is just due the solvent -Water-, the mass of water is 428g.

Percent by mass is:

21.441g / 428g * 100 =

5.0% by mass
