400 g of CaSO4 is dissolved with 500 g of H2O, if 226 g of CaSO4.5H2O crystallizes out, then what is the percentage of CaSO4 in the remaining solution?

Correct Answer: 39.16%
Moles of crystal = 226/226 = 1, => the crystal has 136 g of CaSO4 and 90 g of water, => Remaining solution has 264 g of CaSO4 and 410 g of H2O, => Percentage of CaSO4 in remaining solution = 264/(264 + 410) *100 = 39.16%.
