 I know the volume and molarity, but I don't know how to find the mass of the solute or the density of solution, or amount of water in the solution. Here is the problem:
There is a 50ml 0.1M aqueous solution of HCl. How do I find the total mass of the solution? How do I find the mass/volume of the water involved?

With this data's no way. You have to look up the specific gravity in a tablebook.
If you know this you can calculate the mass and you know also the molar mass. So you know the mass of the HCl. The Differenz would be the mass of water.
