Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The initial solution was 300 g. After heating, the solution weighed 130 g. The difference in weight (300 - 130 = 170 g) represents the water that evaporated.

AI explanation

The initial mass of the sugar solution is 300 g, and the final mass after heating is 130 g. The amount of water evaporated is simply the difference between the initial and final weights. Subtracting 130 g from 300 g gives 170 g. The amount of water evaporated is 170 g.
