6 0

Answer:

62.07 %

Explanation:

Chemical Formula =  (CH3)2CO = C3H6O

Mass of C = 12 g/mol

Mass of H = 1 g/mol

Mass of O = 12 g/mol

Mass of  C3H6O = 3(12) + 6(1) + 16 = 58 g/mol

Total mass of C in Acetone = 12 * 3 = 36 g

Mass Percent of C =  Total mass of C / Mass of Acetone   *  100

Mass percent = 36 / 58    *  100

Mass percent = 62.07 %
