Question

Given that a 12.00 g milk chocolate bar contains 8.000 g of sugar, calculate the percentage of sugar present in 12.00 g of milk chocolate bar keeping in mind that the answer should have four significant figures (two decimal places).

Answer 1

Answer:

$\%of\;sugar\;present = 66.67\%$

Explanation:

Given:

Amount of milk chocolate bar = 12.00 g

Mass of sugar present in milk chocolate bar = 8.00 g

$\%of\;sugar\;present=\frac{Amount\;of\;sugar}{Amount\;of\;milk}\times 100$

Substitute the values in the above formula,

$\%of\;sugar\;present=\frac{8.00\;g}{12.00\;g}\times 100=66.67\%$

Answer 2

So in order for us to know the percentage of sugar present in a 12.00 g of milk chocolate, what we are going to do is that, we just have to divide 8 by 12 and multiply in by 100 and we get 66.67. Therefore, the percentage of sugar present in 12.00 g of milk chocolate bar is 66.67%. Hope this answers your question. Have a great day!
