Carvone is a substance that occurs in two forms having different arrangements of the atoms but the same molecular formula (c10h1
4o) and mass. one type of carvone gives caraway seeds their characteristic smell, and the other type is responsible for the smell of spearmint oil. calculate the mass percent of each element in carvone.
Oxygen is the 8th element in the periodic table. This means that oxygen has 8 protons and 8 electrons. In order to get the number of neutrons you take the atomic weight in this case 15.9999~16 and you subtract it by the number of protons (16-8).
