This would be a good trick...

Explanation:

There is a typo in the question, please amend. The definition of a saturated solution is very poorly appreciated....

The question probably should read, #"16.52 g of salt gave 142 g"# #"of saturated solution"#...and so we know the mass of the solute, and know the mass of the solvent used....this is probably water, but it is not specified.
