In lab, you determine that a dry, clean evaporating dish weighs 36.296 g. You add some unknown to the evaporating dish, reweigh, and get a mass of 38.445 g. After washing with water and drying the solids you re-weigh the evaporating dish and solid and get a mass of 37.81 g. What was the percent composition of NaCl in your original sample? (Insert your answer as a percentage, not as a decimal.)
