What does it mean when it says 10% by weight

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-02-14] [Hit: ]
5=74.the normality of the solution is 100/74.5=1.34M-That means the weight of the salt is 10% of the weight of the solution. Some mixtures are specified as % by volume, which is meaningless if the volumes change when they are mixed.......
I'm trying to find concentration of NaOCl and it says to convert the 10% by weight stock solution to a molarity assuming the density of the solution is that 1.00 g/mL. I am confused with the 10% by weight part so if someone could help explain that part that would be great! Thanks in advance!!

10% mass weight by weight means , that the weight of solute is 10% of the mass of total solution

I give you the formula

% w/w = 100*weight of solute/weight of solution

in your example 1 liter of the solution weighs 1000g
NaOCl (w/w) =10% =0.1
so the weight o the solute is 1000 *0.1=100g

The molar weight of NaOCl is 23+16+35.5=74.5g
the normality of the solution is 100/74.5=1.34M
