Hydrogen H weight: 81
Non-metal
Hydrogen is the simplest element; an atom consists of only one proton and one electron. It is also the most plentiful element in the universe. Despite its simplicity and abundance, hydrogen doesn't occur naturally as a gas on the Earth--it is always combined with other elements.

Hydrogen is easily the most abundant element in the universe. It is found in the sun and most of the stars, and the planet Jupiter is composed mostly of hydrogen. On Earth, hydrogen is found in the greatest quantities as water.
Answer:
The mass of water to be added is 2 pounds
Explanation:
The given parameters are;
The mass of the given solution = 2 pounds
The concentration of the given solution = 30%
The desired concentration of the solution = 15%
The mass, m of the acetic acid in the given solution = 30% × 2 pounds
m = 30/100 × 2 pounds = 0.6 pounds
To make a 15% acetic acid solution of acetic acid, the mass X of the required volume, is given as follows;
15% of X = 0.6 pounds
15/100 × X = 3/20 × 0.6 pounds
∴ The mass of the solution required X = 0.6 × 20/3 = 4 pounds
The mass of the solution that will contain 0.6 pounds of acetic acid giving a 15% acetic acid solution is 4 pounds
Therefore, the mass of water to be added to the original solution to make the a 15% acetic acid solution is 2 pounds.
In order of relative atomic mass.
