From the calculations, the percentage by mass of the nitrogen is 18.9 %..

<h3>What is the percentage by mass?</h3>

The term percentage by mass refers to the mass of an atom that is contained in a compound.

Hence, the compound magnesium nitrate has the formula Mg(NO3)2. The molar mass of the compound is 24 + 2(14 + 3(16)) = 148 g/mol.

The percentage by mass of nitrogen is; 28/ 148  * 100/1 = 18.9 %.

Answer:

The molecular formula of estradiol is: C_{18}H_{24}O_2.

Explanation:

Molar mass of of estradiol = M= 272.37 g/mol

Let the molecular formula of estradiol be C_xH_yO_z

Percentage of an element in a compound:

\frac{\text{Number of atoms of element}\times \text{Atomic mass of element}}{\text{molecular mass of element}}\times 100

Percentage of carbon in estradiol  :

\frac{x\times 12 g/mol}{272.37 g/mol}\times 100=79.37\%

x = 18.0

Percentage of hydrogen in estradiol  :

\frac{y\times 1g/mol}{272.37 g/mol}\times 100=8.88\%

y = 24.2 ≈ 24

Percentage of oxygen in estradiol  :

\frac{z\times 16 g/mol}{272.37 g/mol}\times 100=11.75\%

z = 2

The molecular formula of estradiol is: C_xH_yO_z:C_{18}H_{24}O_2
