Hailey measured the mass of 1 cup of water and found that it was 154g. She then measured the mass of ¼ of a cup of salt and found that it was 53g. She poured the salt into the water and stirred it until she could no longer see the salt. If Hailey measured the mass of the water again after, what should she find?  

 A. Mass will be 101g   B. Mass will be 154g   C. Mass will be 207g   D. Mass will be 53g

C. Mass will be 207g  -> 154 g of Water + 53 g of Salt

What would be the best way to increase the concentration in a solution of sugar and water?

A. Decrease the amount of sugar, and increase the amount of water.
B. Increase the amount of sugar and keep the water constant.
C. Decrease the amount of sugar, and decrease the amount of water.
D. Increase the amount of sugar, and keep the amount of sugar constant.


B. Increase the amount of sugar and keep the water constant.


Increasing concentration means increase the solute (solid).
