Solution:

Given,

Weight of salt = 75 g

Quantity of water = 100 mL

As we know that, the formula of the percentage of the concentration is:

Concentration% = Mass of the solute / Mass of solute + Mass of solvent × 100

=> Concentration % = 75 / 175 × 100

=> Concentration % = 0.4285 × 100

=> Concentration % = 42.85 %

So, the concentration of the solute that is salt is 42.85%.

Now, for finding the concentration of solvent is:

Given,

Weight of salt = 75 g

Quantity of water = 100 mL

Concentration% = Mass of the solvent / Mass of solvent + Mass of solvent × 100

=> Concentration % = 100 / 175 × 100

=> Concentration % = 0.5714 × 100

=> Concentration % = 57.14 %

So, the concentration of the solvent that is water is 57.14%.
