Percent composition by mass is calculated (mass of element within compound)/(mass of compound)*100. The lower the total molar mass of the compound, the greater the percent composition of sulfur. In this case, MgS would be that compound, since Mg has the lowest molar mass of the four elements bonded to S.
Answer:

Explanation:
Answer:
Mg(OH)2
Explanation:
Magnesium hydroxide is the base since it has hydroxyl ions.
The percentage of Chromium in Chromium Oxide is calculated as follow,
Step 1: Calculate Molar mass of Cr₂O₃,
Cr = 51.99 u
O = 16 u
So,
2(51.99) + 3(16) = 103.98 + 48 = 151.98 u
Step 2: Secondly divide molar mass of only chromium with total mass of Cr₂O₃ and multiply with 100.
i.e.
=

× 100
=
68.41 %
So, the %age composition of chromium in chromium oxide is
68.41 %.
