Solution

`"concentration" = "mass of solute"/"mass of solute+ mass of solvent"xx100 `

Given, Mass of salt is 2.5 gm and mass of water is 50 gm.

So, total mass of the solution = 50 gm + 2.5 gm  = 52.5 gm

Hence, concentration `=2.5/52.5 xx 100 = 4.7%`

A, B and C are all liquids. Liquid A has a comparatively low boiling point. On heating, liquid A vaporises completely without leaving behind any residue. Liquid A is being used increasingly as a fuel in motor vehicles either alone or by mixing with petrol. Liquid B has a very high boiling point. It also vaporises completely on heating, without leaving any residue. Liquid B is a conductor of electricity and used in making thermometers. Liquid C has a moderate boiling point. On heating, liquid C vaporises leaving behind a white solid D which is used in cooking vegetables. The condensation of vapours from C give a liquid E which turns anhydrous CuSO4 to blue.
