The answer is 69.048%.

Mass of potassium dichromate (K₂Cr₂O₇) is 294 g, which is a 100%.

Given mass of chromium is 52 g. So, the mass percent of chromium in the compound is 17.687%:
52 g : x% = 294 g : 100%
x = 52 ÷ 294 × 100 %
x = 17.687%

Given mass of potassium is 39 g. <span>So, the mass percent of potassium in the compound is 13.265%:
39 g : x% = 294 g : 100%
x = </span>39 ÷ <span>294 × 100 %
x = 13.265%

Therefore, </span>the mass percent of oxygen in the compound is <span>69.048%:
100% - </span>17.687% - <span>13.265% = 69.048%.</span>

In the given question according to the information the process of polymerization is an addition polymerization.

<h3>What is polymerization?</h3>

Polymerization is a process in which addition of many small molecules takes place for the formation of a large three dimensional substance known as polymer.

In the polymerization of polyethene the small repeating molecule is ethene and in this process product formed due to the addition process to the double bond of the ethene.

  • In condensation polymerisation removal of water molecule or any other molecule takes place.
  • In dehydrogenation polymerisation removal of hydrogen molecule takes place.
  • In dehydrohalogenation polymerisation removal of hydrogen halide molecule takes place.

Hence given process is an addition polymerisation.
