Answer:
The % Mass Composition of Sr is <em>74.72≅ 75%</em>
Explanation:
The balanced equation:
Sr + O2 → SrO2
Molecular mass of SrO2 = 87.6 + (16 × 2) = 119.6 gmol-1
1 mole SrO2 = 119.6gmol-1
how many mole is in 2.5 g of SrO2 = 2.5÷119.6
= 0.0209 mol
The mole ration of the equation is:
1 mole SrO2 was produced by 1 Sr ion and 1 O2 ion
SrO2: Sr ratio is 1:1
⇒0.0209 mol SrO2 = 0.0209 mole of Sr
mass of Sr = 0.0209 × 87.6gmol-1
= 1.83g
∴ & mass of Sr in sample = × 100
= 74.72≅ 75%

You didn’t show the cylinder containing water, so I created one that you can use as a model (see image).
The water level was originally at 37 mL.
Then you added the ball, and it displaced its volume of water.
The new volume reading is 52 mL, so
Volume of ball = volume of displaced water = 52 mL – 37 mL = 15 mL.
