Percent to mass
Mass to mole
Divide by small
Multiply 'til whole

Assume 100 g of substance, then 82.2 g N and 17.8 g H.

82.2 g N * (1 mol/14.01 g N) = 5.86 mol N
17.8 g H * (1 mol/1.01 g H) = 17.6 mol H

Divide by the smallest mole
17.6 H / 17.6  = 1 H
5.86 N / 17.6 =  1/3 N

Multiply to make whole number ( x3 in this case)
3 x 1 H = 3H
3 x 1/3 N = 1 N

NH3

If the average salinity of seawater is 35ppt, how many grams of dissolved salts will 500g of seawater contain?
Mila [183]
<span>17.5 g 35 ppt stands for 35 parts per thousand. So let's convert that to a decimal number by taking 35 and dividing by 1000. 35/1000 = 0.035 Now multiply that number by the number of grams of seawater you have. So 0.035 * 500 g = 17.5 g So you have 17.5 grams of salt when you have 500 grams of seawater.</span>
