Finding percent composition is fairly easy. You only need to divide the mass of an element by the total mass of the compound. We can do this one element at a time.
First, let's find the total mass by using the masses of the elements given on the periodic table.
7 x 12.011 (mass of Carbon) = 84.077
5 x 1.008 (mass of Hydrogen) = 5.04
3 x 14.007 (mass of Nitrogen) = 42.021
6 x 15.999 (mass of Oxygen) = 95.994
Add all of those pieces together.
84.077 + 5.04 + 42.021 + 95.994 = 227.132 g/mol is your total. Since we also just found the mass of each individual element, the next step will be very easy.
Carbon: 84.077 / 227.132 = 0.37016 ≈ 37.01 %
Hydrogen: 5.04 / 227.132 = 0.022189 ≈ 2.22 %
Nitrogen: 42.021 / 227.132 = 0.185 ≈ 18.5 %
Oxygen: 95.994 / 227.132 = 0.42263 ≈ 42.26 %
You can check your work by making sure they add up to 100%. The ones I just found add up to 99.99, which is close enough. A small difference (no more than 0.03 in my experience) is just a matter of where you rounded your numbers.
Chemical reaction is a process in which one set of chemical substances (reactants) is converted into another (products). It involves making and breaking chemical bonds and the rearrangement of atoms. Chemical reactions are represented by balanced chemical equations, with chemical formulas symbolizing reactants and products. For specific chemical reactants, two questions may be posed about a possible chemical reaction. First, will a reaction occur? Second, what are the possible products if a reaction occurs? This
Answer:
Light changes speed in a glass of water.
Explanation:
The answer is A. Water
Bronsted-Lowry base compounds are those that can accept protons
Bronsted-Lowry Acid Compounds are those that can recieve one
Water / H2O is an Amphoteric compund which mean that its molecul can act as a Base and Acid compound, so the answer is A.
