Molar mass of:
NaCl :
Na = 23 , Cl = 35.5
23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g / mol
58.5 ----------> 100 %
35.5 ----------> x %
58.5 x = 35.5 * 100
58.5 x = 3550
x = 3550 / 58.5
x = 60.68 % of chlorine
hope this helps !.

The percent by mass of chlorine in NaCl is 60.68 % of chlorine
calculation
mass % of chlorine =mass of chlorine /mass of NaCl x 100
from periodic table the mass of cl= 35.5 g/mol
that of of Na = 23 g/mol
The mass of NaCl is therefore = 35.5 g/mol + 23 g/mol =58.5 g/mol
mass % is therefore= (35.5 / 58.5 x 100) =60.68 %
