Percent (%) Composition of CuO

Cu = 1 x 50g      - Multiply by one as there is one Cu

O = 1 x 12.5g      - Multiply by one as there is one O

CuO = 62.5g

% for Cu = 50g over 62.5 multiplied by 100 = 80%

% for O = 12.5g over 62.5 multiplied by 100 = 20%

Final Answer :

<em>Percent (%) Composition of CuO = </em>80% (Cu) & 20% (O)

Tin has ten stable isotopes. The heaviest, 124Sn, makes up 5.80% of naturally occuring tin atoms. How many atoms of 124Sn are pr
matrenka [14]

The average atomic mass of Sn is 118.71 g/mol

the percentage of heaviest Sn is 5.80%

the given mass of Sn is 82g

The total  moles of Sn will be = mass / atomic mass = 82/118.71=0.691

Total atoms of Sn in 82g = 6.023X10^{23}X0.691=4.16X10^{23}

the percentage of heaviest Sn is 5.80%

So the total atoms of Sn^{124} = 5.80% X 4.16X10^{23}

Total atoms of Sn^{124}=2.41X10^{22} atoms

the mass of Sn^{124} will be = \frac{2.41X10^{22}X124}{6.023X10^{23}}=4.96g
