I think that the answer is d
the molar mass is how many grams it takes to make a full mole. The number in carbon 12 tells us that it takes 12 g to makes a mole, so one half of that would be <u><em>option d, 0.5</em></u>.
Answer:
54.1 % Ca, 43.2 % O, 2.7% H
Explanation:
Molecular formula for calcium hydroxide is Ca(OH)₂
As we don't have a mass of Ca(OH)₂ to find out the percentage composition, we consider that the question refers to 1 mol of compound.
1 mol of hydroxide weighs 74.08 g
1 mol of hydroxide has 1 mol of Ca, therefore 40.08 g are Ca
2 moles of O therefore 32g are O
2 moles of H therefore 2 g are H
Percentage composition is known as (Mass of element/Total mass) . 100
(40.08 / 74.08) . 100 = 54.1 %
(32 / 74.08) . 100 = 43.2 %
(2 / 74.08) . 100 = 2.7%
