Answer:

The mass percent of potassium is 39%

Option C is correct

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Atomic mass of K = 39.10 g/mol

Atomic mass of H = 1.01 g/mol

Atomic mass of C = 12.01 g/mol

Atomic mass of O = 16.0 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate molar mass of KHCO3

Molar mass KHCO3 = 39.10 + 12.01 + 1.01 + 3*16.0

Molar mass KHCO3 = 100.12 g/mol

Step 3: Calculate mass percent of potassium (K)

%K = (atomic mass of K / molar mass of KHCO3) * 100%

%K = (39.10 / 100.12) * 100%

%K = 39.05 %

The mass percent of potassium is 39%

Option C is correct

fgiga [73]

Answer:

A beaker  

Step-by-step explanation:

Specifically, I would use a 250 mL graduated beaker.

A beaker is appropriate to measure 100 mL of stock solution, because it's easy to pour into itscwide mouth from a large stock bottle.

You don't need precisely 100 mL solution.

If the beaker is graduated, you can easily measure 100 mL of the stock solution.

Even if it isn't graduated, 100 mL is just under half the volume of the beaker, and that should be good enough for your purposes (you will be using more precise measuring tools during the experiment).
