No, the percent by mass of each element in compound does not depend on the amount of element used to make the compound

The mass percent of each element in a compound is by definition, the compound's percent composition. 100% of the compound is represented by the molar mass. the composition of the elements is fixed in each compound. according do law of multiple proportions different compounds may be formed with same elements but in different proportions.so percent by mass of each element does not depend on amount of element used to make compound

<h3>Ferric Oxide:-</h3>

$\setlength{\unitlength}{1cm}\begin{picture}(0,0)\thicklines\put(0,3){\bf Fe}\put(0,0){\bf -3}\put(4,3){\sf O}\put(4,0){\bf -2}\put(0.2,2.9){\vector(4,-3){3.5}}\put(3.8,2.9){\vector(-4,-3){3.5}}\end{picture}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Fe_2O_3$

<h3>Calcium Hydroxide:-</h3>

bagirrra123 [75]

The residue of coal decomposition in the manufacture of steel is coal tar. It is a by product of the coking process in the blast furnace. Coal gas is another by product but is not the answer becuase this is not a residue which is a solid. Coal gas is a gas. Coke in fact is one of the reactants fed for steel making. Answer is choice 3.
