Isotope- variation of an element
Sixteen- atomic number of oxygen
The mass percent of hydrogen in CH₄O is 12.5%.
<h3>What is the mass percent?</h3>
Mass percent is the mass of the element divided by the mass of the compound or solute.
- Step 1: Calculate the mass of the compound.
mCH₄O = 1 mC + 4 mH + 1 mO = 1 (12.01 amu) + 4 (1.00 amu) + 1 (16.00 amu) = 32.01 amu
- Step 2: Calculate the mass of hydrogen in the compound.
mH in mCH₄O = 4 mH = 4 (1.00 amu) = 4.00 amu
- Step 3: Calculate the mass percent of hydrogen in the compound.
%H = (mH in mCH₄O / mCH₄O) × 100%
%H = 4.00 amu / 32.01 amu × 100% = 12.5%
The mass percent of hydrogen in CH₄O is 12.5%.

Lewis Structure is drawn in following steps,
1) Calculate Number of Valence Electrons: # of Valence electrons in Mg = 2
# of Valence electrons in I = 7
# of Valence electrons in I = 7
---------
Total Valence electrons = 16
2) Draw Mg as a central atom surround it by two atoms of Iodine.3) Connect each Iodine atom to Mg, and subtract two electrons per bond. In this case we will subtract 4 electrons from total valence electrons. i.e.
Total Valence electrons 16
- Four electrons - 4
----------
12
4) Now start adding the remaining 12 electrons on more electronegative atoms i.e. Iodine.
The final lewis structure formed is as follow,
A. Plastic is a good insulator.
