3 0

Answer:

53.85%

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Mass of antimony (Sb) = 27.6g

Mass of Fluorine (F) = 32.2g

Mass of compound = 59.8g

Percentage composition of fluorine (F) =..?

The percentage composition of fluorine can be obtained as follow:

Percentage composition of fluorine = mass of fluorine/mass of compound x 100

Percentage composition of fluorine = 32.2/59.8 x 100

= 53.85%

Therefore, the percentage composition of fluorine in the compound is 53.85%

Acetic acid (HC2H3O2) is the active ingredient in vinegar. Calculate the mass percent composition of O in acetic acid.
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

53.29% of acetic acid is Oxygen

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Acetic acid it's molecular formula is HC2H3O2. This means it consists of 3 elements Carbon, Hydrogen and oxygen.

Step 2: the molar masses

The molecular mass of acetic acid is:

4* H = 4* 1.01 g/mole

2* C = 2*12 g/mole

2*O = 2* 16 g/mole

Total molar mass = 4+ 24+32 = 60.052 g/mole

Step 3: Calculate the mass percent

32 g of the 60.052 g is Oxygen

(32/60.052) *100% = 53.29%

53.29% of acetic acid is Oxygen.
