________Results including data

IV. Word Problems

(26-28) You are given 0.2 kilograms of sugar to dissolve in 500 milliliters of water. After some
time, you find that only 180 grams of sugar dissolved. How much sugar, in milligrams, is left
undissolved? (Note: Consider that sugar is the solute and water is the solvent.)

(29-35) A student measured the mass of a substance as 25 grams and its volume as 5 cm³.
Calculate the density of the substance.
(Hint: Density = Mass / Volume)
V. Multiple-Choice
Direction: Choose the letter of the best answer. Write your answer on the space provided
before each number.
