Using the law of constant proportions which says that within the same compound, elements exist in fixed ratios.
Therefore; we can use the ratio of total mass to the mass of carbon, to determine the amount of carbon in another sample.
Mass C / Mass CH4 = Mass C / Mass CH4
43.2 g / 57.6 g = Mass C / 37.8 g
Mass C = 37.8 g × 43.2 g / 57.6 g
= 28.35 g
Hence; the percentage of carbon will be;
=(28.35/ 37.8 )× 100%
= 75 %
Thus; 75% of 37.8 g of methane is carbon
They are arranged by their atomic mass.
Answer
Do you think that the mole should be considered a base unit in the SI system?
The mole is not a base unit on a par with the six property base units; it cannot be used in significant physical–chemical comparisons until the subscript parameter p in mole-of-Ep has been given a certain “value”."
